Hello and thank you for contacting Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach. If the puppy has not been vaccinated or de-wormed I would not recommend buying him. Responsible breeders vaccinate pupps at 7-8 weeks of age and repeat vaccination 2-3 times. Also, 7 months old puppy should have been de-wormed at least 4-5 times so far. In my opinion, buying a 7 month puppy that has never been seen by a vet is a great risk of getting a sick dog.
