1) yes, we do hate breeding tinies, but like you, I don't think she is that tiny...on the smaller end of the standard scale, yes, but so long as your male is smaller as you say he is, 4lbs 7oz is a far cry from the 3lb mommas that have been popping up lately...2) yes, 9 pounds would be safe, IMO
Also, IMO, it depends HIGHLY on how you make efforts to care for the dogs, regardless of size, before, during and after pregnancy that can make a HUGE difference in the outcome. Please keep us posted on your sweeties and their progress.

wow i thought for sure i would be bashed.... my male is 3lbs and 13oz and is shorter both leg wise and length wise... so i think she will be safe... plus both my male and females parents and grandparents were 4lbs and under so i shouldnt get in a situation were i will have a beast come out of her...lol... well thank you everyone for all of the advise and im keeping my fingers crossed that my 9pounder took... thanks again...
