I have gotten puppies myself at 9 weeks and 3 out of 4 had no problems, but one cost me over a thousand in vet bills due to seizures caused by hypoglycemia.
I don't let my puppies go until at least 11 weeks (they are only 4 pounds at maturity). I find they go home eating dry food very well, never have any intestinal upsets from the change of environment and just settle into their new homes with ease at this age. Seems to be easier on the puppies and the new owners. |
