I am always keeping my show prospect puppies until 7 to 9 months . Don't forget that sometimes peoples want to have the puppy before due time . It is not always the fault of the breeder if a person don't have what he or she want.
Once , I had a person wanting to have a show pup and when I told the person she would have to wait , she called me all sort of names and went to the nearest pet shop and bough the most horrible puppy I have ever seen .
The secret for buying a show puppy is patience , patience and patience .[/QUOTE]
I totally agree....when I decided to get my second yorkie. My first in not in the breed standard. I contacted and developed a relationship with the breeder. I was on her waiting list for over a year before a pup became available.
