Wow, lots of replies. Thank you everyone.

I really appreciate all the advice. It's been very helpful. My Ginger was small to me at 5 1/2 lbs but the new puppy I may be getting will only weigh about 2lbs full grown, so that is much smaller then I'm use to.
I realize there are risks and I'll have to be extra careful.
The breeder I've been talking to has been very helpful and has patiently answered my gazillion questions
efblair: I'm very sorry to hear about your dog being stolen. How awful for you
PartPixie: I'm sorry about your little Diva. That had to be very hard for you.
Thanks again and if anyone has more suggestions or first hand experiences, I would love to hear from you
