Oh yes  way to young to be sold because they are just being weened and not 
eating  really good just yet.I sell mine at 8 wks or older if the puppy in 
question  needs more time.



Eating is not so much the problem though it can be for some.  At 6  weeks the 
pups most likely will be eating very well.  The reason they NEED  to stay 
with their mother longer is that they gain other extremely important  "life 
lessons" during this time.  Pups who have been removed from their  mothers at 
such 
an early age are harder to potty train.  Their mother keeps  the pups clean 
and then they take on that behavior from their mother.  They  learn that it is 
not "fun" to be soiled.  This is a lesson that is learned  between 4 to 8 
weeks.  If it is not learned, the puppy will be MUCH harder  to potty train.
