You might want to try Crystal Waters or Tsi La Gi, they both run small and have baby doll faces.

Can a two-three pound mate with a 6 pound female? Just curious.

[Gazou]

Yes , they can .

Having a 2 - 3 pounds male mated with a 6 pounds female doen't always mean that it will be easier for her to have puppies .

[lisatodd]

just an fyi, size of the male doesnt make small puppies, more puppies, or an easier delivery . you need to look at the parents of both of your female and male to determine what size the offspring will be. you can use a 6lb male if you cannot find a smaller male.
contact your breeder and find out everything you can about your female's parents and grandparents

yea i heard that they tend to take after the grand parents, alot of people had told me not to get a male that was the same size or bigger then the dam because the pups would be big and hard to pass so thats why i asked for a smaller male but i guess thats not situation yay i learned something new!!!

Great advice!!!

I also want to add that big ears and a long nose are hard traits to breed out. Usually they make what their grandparents are more then their actual parents, so do alot of research on the pedigree and backgrounds first. I think you would be better with a 3 to 5 lb. male (rather then 2-3 lbs) who has small grandparents IMO.

good advice! My female is 6lbs and my male is 7lbs. Both come from small parents and grandparents. Their first litter was perfect, but I will want to breed with a smaller male sometime down the road.
