There is no way to guarantee the size of a puppy. A reputable breeder would never breed for that size so it will be hard to find one that small. Getting one from a reputable breeder that is a bit bigger would be better. When your dealing with a pup under 5 pounds it can be hard to spay/neuter and do dentals and other surgeries. Sure you could buy from a bad breeder that advertises teacups but the pup could end up being much larger and full of health issues. You should know a little bit more about breeders who breed for these tiny size dogs. Generally they take a female dog that is very small and under the 5 pound weight that any breeding female should be to safely breed and they put her life at risk sometimes they make it sometimes they don't. When the puppies start getting a bit big they will give them diet food and or very little food or avoid that by lieing about the age and giving you a pup that should still be nursing from their mother. If you want to support that then go ahead. But honestly why not just go for a healthy well bred pup from a reputable breeder. What happens if you get a pup that ends up getting bigger then what you wanted?
