1. If a vet suggested you to give newborn pups up at 8 and/or 7 weeks, find a new vet. Even though I may be only a "poster", any book you read on breeding and any breeder(well reputable breeder) you speak to does not give their pups up before 12 weeks.
2. You may not currently see any health problems with the pups being given away so young, but unfortunately the owners you sold the dogs to will witness them. Issues like separation anxiety, aggression, bad eating habits, and the inability to be social with other dogs all stem from being taken away too young.
3. How is it that's it's always an "accident" when a female dog gets pregnant? I'm pretty sure if a female goes into heat there's always a willing male. If you knew your neighbor had a male dog, why would you even chance letting your baby go anywhere near him?
Don't attack other posters when you have not only made the mistake of letting your female get pregnant, but also giving her pups up way too young. It's for reasons like this that I stress getting your dogs fixed. Pups that develop poor behavior and possibly get shipped to a shelter shouldn't be the outcome of your lack of responsibly.
