I know you feel committed to this puppy, and many of the folks here on YT had successes taking a puppy home that was too young, but an open contract and a few other things you said about this breeder makes me think that in the next few weeks you will be paying a lot more money for your puppy in vet bills. I think this gbreeder sells them too young so she can just send them out the door, she isn't investing in the pups or in the breed--she is just looking to make money off the innocent buyers and the innocent puppy. JMHO

This is what my heart is telling me too. I know I didn't listen back when I was in your shoes and I also know how much money I've had to invest in her behavioral training and health care because let me tell ya, i love miss Sadie but she's a tee total mess. I can't go back and I love that girl to pieces, but if I had it all to do over I know that this wasn't the best choice i should have made. i put money in the hands of a greedy man who pushed his puppies out the door too early so he could make money off them. sad.
