Tass,
Please, Please, Please read the following thread about my experience with bringing Adie home at 7 weeks.

I DON'T want to see another Yorkie Talk member go through what I went through. And I don't want another little one to suffer the way my baby did. On top of that, Adie cost me over $2500.00 in medical bills, primarily because the breeder and I both thought that with all of my rescue work and working with special needs dogs, I could handle it! The money isn't the issue though.
That puppy you want needs to be eating food on its own and developed enough to survive without it's litter mates. If the breeder won't hold your puppy till she is 12 weeks old then PLEASE find another breeder and advise this breeder that she is asking for trouble.

Good Luck and let us know how it turns out! We Care.
Lou
