I realize this can be a touchy subject. I have bred a very long time and believe me keeping pups until 12 weeks is alot of work for me...there is only one reason a breeder sells early and that is money. The faster they go the, less time and money the breeder must invest..the longer they stay, the more they eat, need shots, worming, grooming, socialization and lots of poop to clean up!!LOL...BUT it is time and money well spent to insure a happy, healthy, well adjusted puppy to the pet owner.

there is nothing definate about the pup going at 7 weeks. He advised us to call him on march 4th to check in with him on the pups progress . The pup has not started eating solid food yet so alot depends on how they do . The vet we have always dealt with for our previous Yorkie is the vet for these pups. The Breeder is very genuine and if the vet says they can go I think we can trust him . Their dogs all seem to be very healthy and happy yorkies. we can only hope for the best.
