It's good she's willing to learn, but she should really be searching out a good experienced mentor to help her do it.

ArmaniMan already mentioned health and behavioral issues, so I won't bring it up again other than to say that you really should be concerned that she hasn't taken steps before this litter to improve her breeding stock. But something I haven't seen here is the mention that there won't necessarily BE a female in the litter. Will you be disappointed if there isn't and would you take another male instead?

One other thing to consider is that having 2 young pups at the same time makes housebreaking all the more difficult. I was told that before I brought Scarlett home, but I thought it wouldn't be that bad. In hindsight, it's made for a whole lot of frustration that I could have done without.

My heart would tell me NOT to take the dog and to continue on with the search for a good, reputable breeder. I wouldn't want to expose my daughter to the possibility of having another pup with health problems in addition to the ones that Mac might end up having.
