What kind of homelife is she coming from...? Kept in a kennel? How many dogs did this breeder have?
I don't know the situation but I can't honestly believe this breeder cares for her dogs if she is giving up a litter of pups and the mom...just doesn't sound right to me.
This whole thing just is not sitting right with me and I know how stressful a dog coming into a new home is like because of my work in rescue. If the breeder is not going to keep her until the pups are at least 6 weeks then you have to give her plenty of space from the other dogs and from yourself. You need to go very slow...Her job is to protect those pups and she could view you as a threat so please go easy. She also might be so over bred she doesn't care anymore..The more litters some of these dogs have the less interested they are in the pups. I have seen wonderful moms start caring less and less for their pups by the 3rd/4th litter.
