After reading all this I would not be surprised if the puppy is younger than you think. A lot of broker's will sell them really young to give the impression that they will be smaller adults. If he is really 4 months at 2.5 lbs he will probably be a pretty small adult. I would guess around 4 lbs. I know you think you want him to be a 2.5 lb adult but really 4-5 lbs is really small. I have an almost 6 pounder and she is really a teeny dog and sturdy enough to run and play and jump off the bed without breaking a leg.
If the health of the puppy does in fact turn out to be an issue and you need to sue her I would be more inclined to go the small claims route because you most likely won't collect any more than the purchase price of the puppy and an attorney will charge you more than that. You could end up with a bigger financial loss.
