Thanks for your story. I just think that it is best to let her vet determine if she should abort them. (IF she is pregnant) with her size, she should be fine.. even though it isn't the ideal situation. Sometimes the cure is worse than the disease. I am hoping she goes to the breeder section and asks there where she can get some good educated (in breeding) answers instead of just being scared into doing something that may not be the best solutiuon. MOST 7 lb bitches bred to a 4 lb male do NOT need a c-section, although that isn't always the case. Her vet is the best person to determine that.
