The breeders vet may have mentioned it to her! A breeder that will sell a puppy at 8 weeks is not very reputable. Harlie should have been with the breeder until she was 12 weeks old.
Think about buying a used car, the owner is not going to tell you all that is wrong with it, he/she wants to sell that car. This is why when you are buying a used car you should take it to your own mechanic to be checked out before you buy it. Same when you get a puppy, you should take it to your own vet ASAP to be checked over.
This is terrible to happen, especially when it is your first puppy. How did you find Harlie??
