I've never had a problem with bite inhibition, housebreaking, or other behaviour issues with a dog....and the more I read about them on here the stronger I feel it has alot more to do with the person raising the pup than the pup itself (just like any other form of parenting...) Given a choice, I want my pup as soon as it's able to eat kibble!
So you would rather get your puppy at 8 weeks because they are cute and you want more time with it even though you will have many many years with them? Rather then it being 12 weeks and more socialized (with litter and mother) and taught things from its mother and healthier really?
