NO! Just No, Preferably 3 Months or 12 weeks. They Still need their mother's milk, unless you are willing to feed it to them in a bottle every second.

How long do people need to keep newborn dockson puppies?
If the puppies are with the mother then you should keep them with her until 8 weeks of age. The mother will instinctively wean the puppies on her own, but you may need to help her by removing her from the puppies. The puppies can technically be taken away after 6 weeks, but the longer the puppies are with the mother the better because they will learn from their mother.

No. Taking a puppy away at such a young age would be severely detrimental to its health and mental development. Puppies need to be fully weaned, and gone through the socialisation stage (which happens around 6 - 8 weeks) with their own littermates, mother, and humans before they can be taken away. Puppies that have left before this time will most likely have socialisation problems later on.
