Each breeder/country is different but that doesnt make any of them worse..its just what works for each of them.Iv never heard of a dog having social problems or any other kind of problem due to leaving its mother at 6 weeks old..infact,these pups are usually better around people.
Again,Im not saying its the ideal thing to do,but its done in ALOT of places by alot of breeders and it has to be accepted.Its easier to say no to a 6 week old pup and just go else where if thats not want you want
I know here it is 8 weeks and some places near it is 7 weeks. I know here it is harder to sell pups afer 10 weeks and prices stat dropping after that. I don't breed but I do read the notices and see what people are buying
