At what age should you buy a puppy?


Recommended Posts

I always was led to believe that a puppy shouldn't leave its mother until the age of 8 weeks and the last two weeks from the age of 6 - 8 weeks are very important for the puppy. I can understand that the seller may want to off load as soon as, and the mother may have had enough of the pups, but at what age is it best to take a puppy from a litter from the buyers point of view? Any opinions.....

Only ever had one pup over the age of 6 weeks old and that was from hancock because he is licensed so he has to keep pups til 8 weeks of age and they weren't with the mother, youngest i've had is my pup now, had her since she was just over 5 weeks old and she is now 11 month old and i couldn't be happier, i will always try and get a pup at 6 weeks old as i find they bond better with me and are more responsive but this is just my opinion. :thumbs:
