I purchased him out of state and the breeder does not have any. She was checking with other breeders that she deals with. In the meantime, members here have been trying to help me and it's greatly appreciated. So I put the topic up for a guideline/formula to go by. Not just for Heather's puppy, but other's that are trying to sell that may have a tiny puppy. But like many have said, they started out tiny and blossomed bigger than anticipated.

For me the weight chart has always been accurate, however another determining factor that has been foolproof for me is the size of the feet! They always seem to grow into them, so take a good look at the pads and bone structure, as it is a very good barometer.
