Default Breeding Size

I have found that depending on who you talk to the ratio of the size of the male to the size of your female can give you very different answers, so I am hoping some of you experts can gieve me your thoughts. (This is assuming the dog is the correct weight for thier bidy structure, not fat, not skinny)

Most people seem to want to breed a small male 3-4 lbs to a bigger female 4-5 lbs. This all seems well in theory but you still can not guarantee what size pups will result from a litter. On the other hand when peoples breed a bigger male to a smaller female, they seem to get a lot of guf about it. But still my thought is that does not determine the size of the pups.

For the beginner what is your recommendation?
Also what is the best way of going about finding a mentor?
