That was MY first thought...and a huge "Uh Oh!"...when I read that the breeder was planning a trip and couldn't keep the pup until 12 weeks...I seem to recall AFTER saying they would, but I am completely inexperienced with a breeder (or how they conduct their placement affairs) other than knowing some personally (non-Yorkie breeds...outside of YT)...none of whom would EVER dream of doing that, and if necessary, would just take the pup along on their trip and connect with the new owner after returning. In fact, several have, and even taken them on trips while puppy sitting for their placed pups.

I hesitated to...and did not...say anything at the time but no reason for me to do so, since there are so many here so much more qualified to comment on THAT behavior than me.

Your description is the first introduction for me as to how that occurs...since I never had a reason to be involved nor thought to inquire of my friends...lol, and I still feel that your method is completely honorable, and am thrilled to hear that it is typical of all ethical breeders. I shall keep that in mind should I ever have an opportunity to acquire a breeder placed puppy. Thank you!
