My vote goes to the adult female. Hands down!! I know people say they want apuppy to watch it grow, but that is sorta like saying I want my female to have 1 litter of puppies. Sometimes, ya don't know what you are getting into in terms of the amount of care and training they must have. So, get the female, make appt with vet before you bring her into your home so if there is a BIG, unsurmountable health problem you can return her to the breeder or deal with it another way BEFORE you have your heart so heavily invested.As YorkieRose said, we retire females for all kinds of reasons and they make wonderful, loving, well-adjusted house pets.. As for house-trained--she is house-trained to HER now house. You will hve to start from scratch in your home as she wil not be familiar with the smells, textures and location of things in your home. So be prepared for a few accidents in the beginning and keep her confined to an un-carpeted area..
