anytime you get a new dog but esp a pup the vet visit should be done within a few days. In fact a reputable breeder and most shelters have that in their contracts. The vet needs a baseline for normal for one thing but for a pup the shots and worming need to be set up and a fecal done as a dog from a BYB will almost always have worms and/or fleas. So take a morning poop with the pup.
