A lot depends on breed and, especially the breeder/trainer, and "Mom". Our kennel trains K9/Protection working dogs and at 6 weeks they eat and drink independently.
Many others (as pets) may routinely take 10-12 weeks, or more.
Get recommendations from several Vets for area trainers that know your dog's breed and give them a call. Most are willing to share their knowledge with you.
because they need to be with there mother and to drink milk from her
Puppies should not be taken from their mother before 6 weeks of age. Most breeders, however, wait a little longer and do not re-home their puppies until 8 weeks for large breeds and 10-12 weeks for small breeds.
6-8 weeks
Puppies have to be atleast 1 month old before they leave their mother.
yes, the sooner the better.
It can really vary on the length of time before a Labrador retriever puppy can be removed from their mother. Most of the time it should be six to eight weeks before they can even be given out.
One or two weeks.
A safe age would be eight weeks, after the dog is fully weaned from it's mother and is eating puppy dry food.
Pupplies get their shos at about 6 weeks, one every other week for 3 times. Before that hey should be OK.
Puppies and Kittens should all be sold at the youngest age of eight weeks.
Chihuahua puppies should be at least 8 weeks old before given up for adoption, although waiting until they are 10-12 weeks is better. Before allowing them to leave their mom, they should be able to eat hard puppy food on their own.
3 weeks. trust me
