When I bred my dog (the male is 3 lbs and she is 7), the sire's owner had to hold him up on her (it was hilarious). We couldn't leave them alone because my dog would have drug him all over the place. This of course could have caused the male serious problems, which is why breedings should be supervised. This is a great site to get lots of information on breeding and all the things you will need to be prepared to deal with. Good luck!
