She would latch right on and get in and fight for a spot, and there were four puppies. I watched her extra close, but I wouldn't say that just because they are small they will have trouble. This was out of a 5.5 pound female and 5 pound male.

Thanks Whitney....more reassuring words.
Looking at my Halle who is about 5lbs now at 6 months, I try to imagine her carrying a litter of pups....and have also wondered how big of a puppy she can whelp. I know that is also dependant on how the female's frame is built; free whelping family history, etc...........I'm thinking Halle will do fine, just like her mom!
