As for the 8 weeks, I got one pup from Misty at 6 weeks and another at 7. SOME people say to wean and sell at 12 weeks, but it does not hurt the puppy if he or she is no longer able to nurse.

You can always wean the dog on another lactating female if the mothers milk dries up or feed a supplemental I'm sure (breeders would know better than I), but they should stay for socialization until a minimum of 10 weeks completely dependant on size and health
