You don't' have to criticize your breeder or insult her a polite conversation.
And for the record, 25 years ago I fed my 11 black lab puppies rice cereal with goats milk and kibble, I don't know why I just did. All but one lived very long lives...!!
Do what you think is best but I would resist bringing this pup home even before 10 weeks. |
I do respect your opinion, what people say in this forum is important to me.
My Vet however, suggested that because all her litter mates are gone (she is with an adoptive mommy who's puppies have already gone to their furever home, and isn't interested in nursing Sophie any longer, we get her on a better food and that because there is so much "socialization" going on between 8 and 12 weeks, she would rather have her socializing with us as her new family. She is ready to see her the next day. I have a lot of respect for my Vet, she has helped us through some very difficult days. She held our hand when we were loosing our Gretel, calling every day and checking on how she was doing, and yes she does have experience with very small dogs. I trust her.
I do respect that anyone has the right to have a different opinion than mine. That is how the world goes around. I'm ok with that and hope you are too. Thank you for your concern, I do appreciate it.
