wow thanks all for the great advice and options, I've been sharing them with hubby and it certainly will help with our decision whether we're getting this pup or not.
It's a Silkie Terrier ( as I said, a pup who thinks it's huge,lol), from a friend of mine, not a breeder. This is an oops litter, momma will be spayed after so that this doesn't happen again, but in the meantime it's very tempting for us to add one of her pups to our family. Mom is a cutie and so is dad.
We've always had big dogs, aren't used to little guys and aren't sure how our babies will take to a miniature dog. As I said, we'll be thinking long and hard as we still have enough time before we have to decide.
