WOW! Where have you been this past week?????? We sure could have used you here! Glad to see you're back and doing well. I'm glad that you spoke to your reproductive specialist and that they agree that a bitch shouldn't be under 5 lbs!
This is what has been said about theriogenologist in the past....
"I found this specialist who explained that even a small female can have puppies from a large breed do because nature has designed it so that the puppies will only fill the space available in the uterus of the mother. "
