Rosebud was taken away from her mother and siblings and 5 weeks old and they took them all to a mall and told everyone that if nobody took them then they were going to put them dog. So my aunt took her and keep here for about 1 week them gave her away to one of her friends and she stayed there for 2 weeks, then she went back to my aunts house stayed there for 1 day. And we were up there visting and when I went over to see her I fell in love with her and she was so tiny. So I begged my gradmother if we could take her to her house. And she let me, she had to stay with my gradmother for 2 weeks then I could come pick her up. So in 2 weeks I got her. And she had no training and by then she had been 3 months. So she went to 4 homes before she came to me. And now she is 7 months old.

Wow! I would have gotten the name of the breeder and turned them in. Some states have laws governing the age of a pup leaving it's mom. In all honesty as hard as it is to do your aunt should have just kept walking. Bad breeders will just keep right on with litters like this if people help them out. We have an old guy that sit's with the pups in the back of his pick up, in the parking lot of one of our local Walmarts every 6 months. The pups are all from the same mom. I would bet if he had to take those pups home and care for them he would end up getting mom spayed.
I wouldn't worry about the no training for till three months. A lot of very small (toy) breeds are even sold until they are 10-12 weeks old. I hope your little girl has finally found her forever home. Best of luck to the both of you
