| Re: Best age for puppy conformation evaluation
Pat Hastings says a week either side of 8 weeks, that's it, and that 8 weeks exactly is ideal. Too early and you're not seeing true structure, later than that and the pup will have been walking long enough to build muscle to compensate for weaknesses, so you won't see them as easily. So 7-9 weeks.
