I'm sorry, but I'm with @nycbullymama totally here. It may be convenient for you both, but not for the pup.
The point of them staying with the breeder until at the very least 8 weeks is to socialize them. It's a crucial time for them to learn proper behaviors from their litter mates. Things like how to play, and bite inhibition.
There's a reason why it's illegal to sell puppies in NY before they're 8 weeks old- they need that time with their mom and siblings.
I'm gonna be blunt here, I don't like your breeder. She knows this and is still willing to give her up at a ridiculously young age. Very wrong of her.
Google what separating a puppy that young does to their social development, and what problems it can cause down the road. Don't let her talk you into taking her at 6.5 weeks.
