If an 8 lb female had the qualities I wanted with a small frame ..
Then I would breed her back to a smaller male and see what happens.
To work within the faults..if one has bigger ears.
Then breed back to one with smaller ears.
Same for longer in the body ..breed to a cobby body...etc.
I would watch the pups as they grow .. do they appear to have the qualities you are after??
Also keep the best pup/s and breed back to the more correct qualities you are going for.
Hope this helps...

Very good advice
