| Checking out a puppy this week... Hi y'all, for those who may have been following my story, I'm actively looking for my future furbaby. I spoke to a local experienced breeder today and have an appointment to view the puppy on Thursday. The breeder said she'll probably be about 7lbs full grown (which is ideal for me, I'm not too interested in the "tea cup" sizes myself as cute as they are). Fortunately, the puppy is already 4 months old and although I won't be able to take her home until the end of the month, the breeder said she could hold her for me until then with a 50% deposit. So hopefully the puppy will be the right one for me *fingers crossed*. I'm just wondering what I should look out for, what to ask the breeder, how can I tell if it's the right one (other than what I feel)? Thanks in advance for your advice! D- |

| I would find out how they have been potty training her..at 4 months, she should at least have a good grasp on the whole concept. Also, I would see if she has been allowed to socialize with other puppies. Good luck, I hope she's perfect for you!! |
