I've not read the whole thread yet, but I couldn't get past this part of the post. Your breeder is not as trustworthy as you think if she will breed a 2.9 lb female, ESPECIALLY to a larger male. That is SO dangerous and could easily have resulted in the death of her female. and just from skimming the few posts above me, it actually sounds as if your breeder is either a puppy mill herself or a broker. A true breeder is someone who believes in the betterment of the breed, and breeding a non-standard female to larger male (and mixing breeds purposly) is not a responsible, true breeder, IMO.
I'm not a breeder, so I'll leave this to the breeders of the forum, but I could not stay quiet about that. Welcome to YT, I hope you find all the info you need here!
