As for dewclaws: They can cause alot of harm just as well.
You might have me with the tail issue, but NEVER on the age of when a puppy leaves my home!!!!!!!! My oldest baby boy who will be 10 weeks old tomorrow weighs 1lb 10oz, I can't even imagine letting him go that small, not to mention with only one set of shots!!!!!! |
I completely agree with everything you say. Obviously though, this person is not going to change their mind, so let's just say.........So glad we are in the good ole' USA!!!!!!!! LOL
I am so happy that I get my puppies after 12 weeks and they are not considered too old, or second-hand puppies.
