Some tiny males who are much smaller than the females throw big puppies and the female will have to get a C-section. It all depends on if you know your male's history. So 1 pound is not a big difference and some breeders here even have males that are 1 to 2 pounds or slightly bigger then the female and have had no problems with the females delivering puppies.

That is what my breeder told me, but having heard over and over again that this is a HUGE NO NO I was skepticfal about asking about it on here.

Thank you for pointing this out.
