I really didn't see where anyone is judging you.

For someone who asked for advice; you seem mighty defensive.

I suggested only that you educate yourself - for the sake of the puppy. If that angers you; then so be it. Like it or not - it's not all sunshine and roses when things take a wrong turn. Too many times, we've seen how often that happens.

IF you are prepared - then it is my hope you can prevent anything bad from happening.

I'm glad you are exited about your pup; you seem to have thought this through - but it doesn't hurt to know what to look for and how to handle different situations with a small and young pup. Perhaps you already knew all that - in which case, I apologize.
