Not just that generation but 3 generations back.

50 percent from parents
25 percent from grandparents
12 percent from g grandparents
Could have had a grandparent that was a whopper.

Danger of breeding a small dog when you don't know what is in the background could have 3 small pups and a large one. If the large one comes first, may present problems.
Sometimes there is a lot of variety in weight in litters could come from a number of reasons.

Large and small most of the time, are in the genes.
