I think you should still go and see the puppies and their current home. That way you can decide if you feel comfortable with the situation. It sounds to me like she wants to get rid of the puppies and if she keeps her for another 4 weeks she would plan to just keep her in a kennel anyway (not wonderful for the puppy). You will have to see how you feel once you go there. We got our first yorkie (Ginger) from a pet store at 6 weeks old (didn't know any better 9 yrs ago). The pet store owner took the time to explain about hypoglycemia and told us how to properly take care of her. We had 2 other dogs at home already (large dogs). She really took to them and so was never really alone or without other dogs. She did just fine. I guess that if the puppy is healthy then in theory everything should be fine. Good luck with whatever you decide. There are plenty of good knowledgeable people on this site than can help you out with the puppy if needed.
