I have two (of course, I started with one, who was lonely). I say she is solid. Her parents are both under 7 lbs. She is just over 9. But she is very beautiful. My boy is just short of five pounds. They are both babies at 7 and 8 months. But they are definitely the best kids ever (please don't tell that to my human daughter!).

Breed standard is important if you want to show, I guess, but what makes you and your baby happy is more important. But yes, I hear all the time about how LARGE she is. But when we are at the stables, I don't fear her being near the horses. My boy is in my jacket so he doesn't get hurt.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder and some people need to MYOB.
