How far is this distance?

I have certain qualities that I'm looking for in a puppy. I don't want a little 2 pound one...I saw some of those size at the dog show yesterday and I freaked out at how tiny and fragile they look. It scared me!

Something maybe in the 3-4 pound range or so would be nice. I would love to find something in the $1000 range. I've been looking in my local paper, but no luck.
