Yes I think you are right ! Usually i am not that slow to spot a scammy story. I refrained from saying 8 weeks is too young, It is the legal adoption age in Fl. for dogs and cats. BUT I honestly think 12 weeks is the minimum age for Yorkies. I have seen so many puppies that were placed too young. Sometimes they have nipping and anxiety problems. Here I go, climbing up on that soap box.....
I also think Hamster size puppies, that weigh less than my car keys are highly suspect.
