Special pleading - RationalWiki

The assertion that 8 weeks is too young is for those making the claim to provide evidence to support.

It is nowhere to be seen so far nevermind behind a pay wall.

You'd think it would be to hand given the arrogance it is offered up as fact.
But I thought you were interested in actual scientific data and studies - real research, not someone's summary of it, which is all that I've seen so far that 7-8 weeks age of puppies is a good age to remove them from mom. Published, copyrighted research material is usually behind firewalls for purchase or published partly/wholly in a usually costly, subscribed, scientific magazine with permission from the author. Either way it's rarely free.

Just let me know if you'd like the links to the abstracts(give you a full overview of the study, summary) of the findings or the full articles and online ebook preview or ebook that is much like your webpage summary, with full references.
