I got Cesar at 16 weeks, he was a rescue. He was pad trained but a very shy little dog. His mom had died right after he was born so his mom had not trained him.
Last week I bought a female from a friend. She was 8 weeks old. She is a big puppy and is eating well. My friend let me have her early because I had experience with yorkies and would be home with her all day. She has 2 small children so the holiday season was going to be hectic at her house and felt she would get more attention with me. Sometimes it works out to get them earlier, it really depends on the dog and situation. If I had questioned her health, I would have waited about taking her. |
