How long do they usually stay in pouch, then how long after they are out of the pouch? TIA! Fur Mommy to Guacamole the cat and Enzo the bull terrier RIP to my beautiful suggie girls Lyric and Lola

They learn everything from their parents so taking a baby from it's parents too young is not good for them. I think 10-12 weeks OOP is better. I got one just over a year old. I would not recommend that particular age as at that time they're pretty much teenagers and full of themselves. He's been a brat, but now that he's approaching 2 he's calming down a lot and is turning out to be a pretty sweet little boy. Pibble pup Jenson Glide free: Smoke (6/16/15) and Zoey (10/2/15)
