Thank you all so much! I do trust my breeder, I am welcome in her home for visits at any time. She absolutely adores her dogs and spends 24/7 with them. She is putting on weight slowly. I was just getting so anxious when everyone just had terrible things to say! My parents currently have 2 Maltese's that i have grown up with so I am used to small dogs. I have chosen the name Lyra (leera) Our dogs all have names following constellations. Lyra is in Vega and it is the greek root word for Lyrics and I have always been very very into music.
Thank you all for the warm welcome. Currently the breeder said she will be ready between 10-12 weeks but she will keep her longer if I wished. I am going to be very careful if my girl turns out small (she wont be able to sleep with me, my bed is very high off the ground). I already have my vet chosen and a back-up vet for emergencies. I plan on having her microchipped, I don't plan on her being out of my sight but i just couldn't imagine her running or getting stolen and knowing there was more I could have done. Is there a certain age when they should be chipped, or can it just be at earliest convenience?
