My understanding is that a 6week puppy is just starting to wean from mom. They dont understand potty on paper or outside at that age. Because my baby came to me at 13 weeks she was already in a routine for pottying where she was supposed to.
There are many breeders out there that just want to produce the babys and move them out the door. I dont think that a puppy would even have any shots by that age and they have very little immunitites.
Patience on your part to let baby stay with the breeder longer would pay off in the end. You get a more mature and physically stronger baby. |
thanks! that helps me alot.
