I talked to my new vet, he is a very experience guy, and he still told me that if a 3 pound girl is healthy is ok to breed her, I respectfully disagree and left it there..
would that make it right, NO, would I personally do it, NO , but the vets are giving permision to do it..
hugs,

To most vets more puppies mean more clients and that means more money. It's sad but true.
