I just felt I could fit a puppy to what she wanted. My puppies I had no reserve on I knew would most likely be bigger. She wanted a puppy, and after waiting she went with another breeder who was local in a newspaper ad.
She was shown the parents, who were 3 and 4 lbs and was told the puppy she bought would get no bigger then 4 lbs. Both parents were perky earred too. AKC registered.
Anyway her puppy is 5 months old at 12 lbs with enormous floppy ears.
What do you think? Was she shown the real parents if you were guessing?
It is very possible. Our oldest female and male are from two different litters in no way related. Both had parents that were 4-4.5 pounds. Our female is 8 pounds and the male is 11 pounds. So yes, very possible. I might add, they have made puppies together ranging from 4.5 pounds to 10 pounds, although the majority have been in the smaller range.
