I can never understand why breeders say they won't get much/any bigger when they are 8 months and weigh 2-3 lbs. It's all speculation and sometimes the "rule of thumb" is indeed correct. I didn't care if Toto grew the size of a St. Bernard ... we just wanted her to be healthy and happy! She, too, was from a show breeder and was going to be too small to show. I wonder if this person has a website?
I know... they must all have some sort of magic crystal ball to know how big they will be fully grown (I may PM her and ask if I can borrow it for the lottery numbers )
Its a shame she is selling her because she thinks she will end up being too small, she may not so why not wait and see?
Poppy is 12 weeks and already weighs over 3lbs.. I couldnt care if she grew to the size of a house its just more to love.
