I'm going to visit my puppy again, at a little over four weeks old. Last time I saw her was at two weeks old. Is there anything I need to look for or at that you know of?

Just have fun with her. She should be much more active and ready to play a little more at 4 weeks. Don't forget to take some pictures. If you have an ond blanket or tshirt you might want to leave it with the breeder for your puppy to sleep with. That way she starts learning your scent and when you get ready to bring her home you can get that shirt or blanket back from the breeder. That way she will have something with her litters scent on it to sleep with when you get her to your house. May help with the transition.

Okay thank you I will do that. I know I'm also going to have to get something like that and get her scent on it to bring home to the other animals.

That is an excellent idea as it will help them adjust to her when you bring her home.

I didn't really need what I took to get her scent. My pants were enough! They wouldn't quit sniffing me, it made them mad that I was "Cheating" on them! LOL

you might want to take something to her that has your crew's scents on it so she can get used to that.

I went to see her but I made the mistake of letting my mother use my phone to take the pics, and she for one couldn't hold still and two had a lot of trouble figuring out how to use it! I didn't get any very good ones, and They were supposed to send me the ones they took, but she hasn't yet. I'll check again and post them if I can!

I also found out that I will be getting her anywhere from March 11th to March 13th! She will be six weeks old... Still really tiny, but I have a week I will be home, so I'll have a lot of time to bond with her!
