anyone know a good reputable breeder or someone who is giving away any small breed puppies? my wife is looking for a very small (under 10 lbs when grown) puppy. we are not set on a particular breed yet. i would love to adopt from the pound to save a life, but i've had two friends that adopted there and the puppies had parvo (or parva?) so i am leary of that option. you can pm me if you have anything.

thanks

No clue on small dog breeders. I wouldn't worry about shelter dogs, you'll see plenty of parvo pups from irresponsible breeders also. Just be sure to take the pup to the vet when you pick them up and start them on their immunizations.

Yeah I wouldn't worry about the animal shelter either...just because you've heard of a couple getting parvo doesn't mean they all will. My sister-in-law breeds Schnoodles (Schnauzer-Poodle mix)....they stay small. Personally I can't stand when people mix breeds like that...but whatever!

Most of the others I know of only breed German Shepherds, Belgian Malinois, or Doberman's. I'll be breeding my Shepherds later this year. Check http://www.al.com and go to the pet classified ads.

The Parvo thing take it from me.... Um they can have all their shots and still get it. I have a mixed breed pup coming up on a year old and she got parvo right after her last set of shots. She was truly sick but pulled through. We had her from 5 weeks and started her shots immediately and she wasn't from the pound.... she was from a B&B pet adoption.
