Best Answer

When they are 12 weeks of age. A responsible breeder will not give up his or her puppies until they are 12 weeks old. When they reach that age, they will no longer have to feed from their mother.

How do convince mom to by you a shih tzu?

Good question. I went through this about 3 years ago. I always wanted a dog, and I researched what breed I wanted. I ended up writing a couple of paragraphs about why I wanted a Shih Tzu and how I would take care of it etc. But, don't bug her about it. Keep it on the down low and make sure you're extra sweet and help around the house. Nothing is better then the love of a dog. Good luck!

When can you let puppies leave the mom dog?

Can they - yes, but puppies should stay with mom and the litter until 8 weeks of age. Usually as they start on solid foods, mom comes around less and less but it is important to allow them the full 8 weeks or longer to be together. This is a critical learning stage for the puppies to develop dog social skills that will aid them later in life. It is a proven fact that puppies taken earlier have a higher percentage of developing behaviorial issues as they grow up.
