I can only tell you of my experience. My first little girl weighed 8 oz. at 10 weeks. The breeder held her over for a few weeks til she got a little bit bigger. At 10 weeks, I took her to the vet..to make sure no heart murmurs etc...she checked it really healthy...was full of spunk and energy and eating well. I did nutrical her and fed her tiny bits of food often so she wouldn't go into hypoglycemia.
The second puppy I got weighed right at 1 lb. at 8 weeks. She is now a little bigger than my first...but is much healthier than me! She keeps me hopping with some of her antics. She is so funny and has a wonderful disposition with everyone. She just has that cotton coat and I am going to have to get some of that stuff mentioned that helps with the grooming of this coat. She does mat easily. And because we have a Min Pin puppy in the home now, he takes her bows etc. out of her hair...will even try to take off her collar.
sadielyn they are always such a joy...even those these two act like cartoon characters.
