As a breeder I would tell you IS not the best to bring such a young puppy home, he needs to stay with his mother until 12 weeks of age, he needs to learn puppy manners and etiquette from her, also from experience I can tell you that when you take puppies away from mom so early some develop bonding issues, talk to the breeder and tell her what we said and see if she will keep him with the mom until 12 weeks that what a good breeder does, if not I will look for a 12 week old, because this breeder is NOT a good one and the health of the pup is not her primary concern.
best of luck if you still bring this little pup home so young..
hugs,
