the real pick of the litter a breeder makes will most likely never be available for adoption-that pup will be retained until maturity to see if it is show/breeding quality.
Yes, I get all this BUT can they really tell at only 1 wk old ? Even show breeders wait till the pup doesn't look like a hairy little sausage anymore, I mean they need to have a shape at least & at only 1 week they really don't so much & all look alike except for size.
