    i can't believe anyone would sell pups that young! i see it in the paper all the time. i call them and ask them to kepp the pups/kittens until they are 7-8 weeks old. for the pups/kittens sake they need this time with their mother for pack skills,nutrition, etc.

    late last year there were 2 blue dane pups for sale in the paper. they were being sold fer $900 each. i called and tried to explain to the lady it was very wrong for her to sell these pups at ONLY 2 WEEKS OLD!!! her excuse for selling them this young..."it helps the new owner bond with the pup better if they hand rear the pup themselves"
    Owned by two little pastries!


    REST IN PEACE GRACIE. NOT A DAY GOES BY THAT I DON'T MISS YOU.

    Kristine - Red is not a fox red, he is dark yellow. Fox reds are much darker and once you see one you'll never mistake a dark yellow for a red again. Here is a fox red: http://www.littleriverlabs.com/willie.htm

    People should be arrested for selling puppies so young!!! drives me nuts, we see it all the time here!! same with kittens!! when i got my kitten Gary(RIP) I was told she was 8 weeks, I took her to the vet because she was so small, and to get all of her shots and the vet told me she couldnt be more than 4 weeks old!!! I was so mad!! so we had her on a special diet for the next few months to make sure she would be okay. I would never buy a dog from a breeder who sells pup in the paper, they are just BYB. But people do it everyday!! Drives me nuts!!!
