No it's just one of the elements. I have yet to have anyone show me a reputable breeder who let's pups go before 12 weeks. Generally if they skip one step they skip another. The two reasons breeders let puppies go before 12 weeks is either lack of knowledge or they don't want to spend the extra money.
