The breed standard calls for them to be 7lbs or under as you probably already know....why....for me my back is not as strong as it once was, so closer to the breed standard is best for me. I should add that my Orion is now 15lbs and he was charting to be no more than 5lbs. Love him to pieces just the same, I just can't carry him as I can my two smaller girls who are 5 and 6lbs. As for the tinies....I wouldn't want a pup that small, I would constantly be worrying about them, add to the health problems the tinies can have, its just not for me. JMO |
