Yes....but there again, unless you are a breeder, you have no idea what all we do for these babies and the mommas and why we do it....so you just did not know!! You certainly can not be faulted for that....and that is what happens....reputable breeders PLAN for that litter...from conception to final sell at 12-14 weeks...we "clear" our calendars and cancel all social engagements and red carpet appearances! Short of death in the family,..... and even then, arrangements are made....we know we are going to have these babies until they are 12-14 weeks old, depending on how the PUPPY is doing/developing/progressing! There is no need to suddenly rush and send them out the door! And if your breeder DOES come up with excuses why that baby has to vacate the premisis immediately, before 12-14 weeks old, there could very well be issues.
