Some breeders think if they breed a tiny male to oversized females, it will correct and reduce size...It can, but it complicates the breeding of those offspring. You will get all sizes from tiny to oversized...and you will never be able to set a true type regarding size.
Many years ago ( On the advise of the number one Easr coast show breeder at that time) I used a small male with a large female...for the next two generations I got tiny females and larger males...never the other way around. Not what I wanted..I started over...
