The way you worded your question - I woundered if you meant how old you you be or how old should the puppy be when you got him. Just had to laugh a little.
I think most of us agree that 10 to 12 weeks is an appropriate age to take a little pup away from its mother....better than 8 weeks.
However, mine was 8 weeks old when I got him -- but he wasn't real small and he ate like there was no tomorrow. He did very well and at six months is still very healthy and doing great!
