I agree. You should see if she can stay with her momma until 12 weeks. My female was with her mom and siblings until 16 weeks and has been amazing. She learned so much and is doing great because she had the opportunity to learn from her mom and siblings. She does not bite (not even play bite) and is doing great with potty training.

9 weeks is too early for a pup to leave momma...
