And another reason I am willing to take the pup at 8 weeks as I am home most of the day so the pup will be with me all the time.

Thank you for the reminder of the hypoglycemia problem and I will be sure to watch out for it.
Just so you know a good breeder won't let you have a dog before 12 weeks. And if the breeder doesn't give you a written contract saying they will take the dog back ..usually with a timeline. They don't have to. Dogs develop of lot of the social skills from 10 -12 weeks this is why they recommend the pups to stay that long. Now I'm not saying the person you bought the dog doesn't mean well. I'm just reminding you just because you read it on the internet it means it's okay. Hope you enjoy your pup and it remains happy and healthy.
