My personal opinion, 6-8 months is wonderful! Still a lot of puppy left in them yet hopefully potty-trained and socialized already. My 1st was 8 wks when I got her - a lot more work then I had anticipated, took long time to potty train, dog was completely dependent on me for quite some time.
This last pup I got at 18 months of age. She was already potty-trained, socialized, was a lot easier transition for both her and us (husband and I).
My husband would agree w your outlook of children coming into the house at the age of 2! |
