I was googling this and got two very very different answers.

The way I pick the dogs up and hold them is from their rear end, go between the legs and put him on your arm. Your arm supports their back....once you have them there make sure that you are holding his front legs on the outsides by spreading your hand and placing your thumb and fingers to keep them in place. This is so that if you are walking through a crowd no one walking by can accidently push his legs out...Be sure your grip is firm but, not hurtful
