I am wondering, did they say this was the recommended weight for one period, or for one that should be bred?

If the standard is "under 7lbs," that would mean ANYTHING under 7 lbs, 1 pound, 2 pound, etc. Surely no one thinks it would be a good idea to breed a 1 pound female just because it "fits the standard?"
