I would be worried to because you are looking at around a 15 year comintment and if getting a pup from a bad breeder then it could end up cost you a lot along the way plus you would be supporting her and keeping her breeding by buying from her. Mom dogs also teach there puppies a lot up until 12 weeks like biting a and stuff. Puppy shots before 8 weeks are useless. I also doubt the puppy is fully weaned and if it is it may have been forced so you could have eating problems. When breeders skip inmportant steps you can bet they skipped a lot and cut a lot of corners. Like I bet she did not even do any health and genetic testing to make sure her breeding dogs weren't caring some of the terrible genetic stuff they can pass to there puppies. One of the big reasons reputable breeders have spay and neuter contracts are because they work very hard for there lines and don't want just anyone using them. Really though you have to do what you think is right. If you do get the puppy I suggest you get a pet insurance that covers genetic illnesses.
