Save your money a bit longer and find a puppy from a responsible/reputable breeder. You buy your breeder first then your puppy. Your breeder should be there for you for the rest of that puppy's life. |
AKC "requires" microchipping now? Is that to make a person buy their microchipping (everyone's out to make a buck so it seems) or do they take microchipping info from another vet. My vet (and the couple others I checked into) won't microchip until they are at least 4 months and prefer older...all said problems can result at the injection site on such a small dog (be that true or not, that's the reason they gave for not microchipping a young pup).
