Yep, six weeks was how old our Briard was when we picked him up. The breeder was stressed with two (rare for Briards) litters and her husband fell ill suddenly. She asked if we could take him early.

He cried and slept alternately all the way on our long drive home, laying in my wife's lap.

He was strongly bonded to her for the rest of his life. I was his alpha and pal (mostly pal, LOL) but she was his love and he was protective of her beyond reason. Avery friendly, child loving and intelligent boy BUT any perceived threat to wifey and the Wolf came out. Wifey always introduced us as her two "wolves".
