Litter evaluations are best when puppies are approximately 7.5 weeks of age. However, with a packed schedule we couldn’t visit during the day. No problem. We evaluated the puppies at night, which ended up much better, as they were much more active during the cool evening temperatures than during the daytime heat. We started at about 9:30 pm and had so much fun that we stayed until almost midnight.
We owe a big thanks to Carol Dean of Southern Charm Labradoodles, who was gracious enough to accommodate our abnormally late working hours.
