I think my problem is..I come across so many bad breeders...they like the fun part of breeding and money. I am not saying this is your breeder..but it is so many I am jaded.
Breeding is serious...you plan for all the problems..save money for the problems that will crop up...and they will.
It is possible for you to take this pup at 5 weeks and do just fine..but it is so unfair for the breeder to risk the pup and your broken heart if something goes wrong...will the breeder pay for vet expenses if you have a problem?
Will you be blamed if something goes wrong?
This advise also goes for the pet owners...we never know from one day to the next what will happen to any of us...we all need backup care for our dogs...here in South Florida we have lots of elderly people..nothing sadder then seeing a 12 or 14 yr old in the pound, Humane Soc, rescue because the owner is terminal or passed away...best wishes |
