this is my opinion, but most people I know would NEVER spend 3 grand to buy a puppy from someone that is breeding moms that are 3 lbs, one of the female breeders I believe was only 2.8 lbs. That is insane to breed a pup that is that small, pups bred that small intentionally have so many more health risks than pups bred to the standard. Let alone the risk you put the mom at. If someone has that much money to spend why not seek out a show breeder, I bet their pups might even be less money and chances for a healthy puppy are much greater.
Question for the OP, why are you buying from this breeder? are you looking for a 3 lb dog on purpose, if so I hope you are well aware of the risks, of course buying any puppy is always a risk, but some risks are greater than other. Also if you pick out a pup at 7 or 8 weeks, you really will not have any clue what it will look like as an adult. |
