get it too old for growing up and bonding reason
If there were an issue with bonding, I guess all the rescues that have been found homes even at 10 or 11 years old would not be possilble.
Any dog or puppy is more thanhappy to go to a good home where they get one on one attention, make sure you are around a fair bit, play with it spend the time iwth it. That creates a bonding relationship, not the age of the puppy.
If I have apuppy that is particularly small, I will not let it go anywhere until minimum over 6 months already spayed/neutered.
The reason is that I want to be sure it is ok and not small due to health issues that can turn up as they get a litlte older.
It is far too risky to let a very tiny puppy go to a new home at a very young age.
Any of my puppies that I know will be going to pet homes do not go until 3 1/2 4 months of age even if they are on the larger side.
