IMO a male at 10 pounds is too big to be used at stud. I have used many males who were larger then my female, but did not exceed 6 to 7 pounds.
I would not select a 7 pound male to be used with a 4 pounder, but at 5 plus pounds has not resulted in any problems for my bitches.
I would look for a male in the 4 to 6 pound range for a first time breeding..good luck.
