I have always met my puppies early, between 3 and 4 weeks. I have also always taken my pup home by 8 weeks and believe in many ways this has made the bond that much closer. I understand the concerns stated by the people who believe differently, but I have honestly never had a breeder ask me to wait until the pup was 12 weeks old before taking her home. In my opinion, most educated people that are responsible pet owners are capable of handling the parenting needs of an 8 week old Yorkie pup.
