The rest have no laws at all. But the Dog Cubs recommend not to sell pups till at least 12 weeks. Because they are protect from nursing and should be receiving the first sets of shots. And proper socialization with the litter mates ,dam and maybe the sire. I receive a 9m puppy. She is alot more well mannered then mine little one....Makes sence. Good breeders wait at least 12 weeks[/QUOTE
Ok so let me rephrase that "it is illegal to separate a puppy from its mother till 8 weeks in the state of Missouri " although the chart reads "it is illegal to SELL, trade or give away dogs or cats before the age of 8 weeks old". |
