Sturgis was the same weight size as lady and his family before him were at 3 1/2 pounds but unfortunately 1 pup i was told was able to take up all the room had there been more pups supposedly it would have been smaller. I am told I can use him again with her but no way am i taking the chance. nope, nope not me. I will either find a smaller stud or a larger female. I am greatful she made it with only the loss of a pup.
Janie you are not crazy. Having a litter of pups is alot of work. People wonder why they cost so much to buy have no idea of the care and time it takes to get them to the selling age!
i agree, there is sooo much to deal with when having a litter of new pups around! people just want to breed their 2 dogs together, get puppies and sell them. there is so much more to that! and then when a mother rejects puppies! oh forget it! they could die just from that if your asleep while she is giving birth! not to mention inexperienced mothers not breaking the sac and stimulating the puppies... way to much to consider even taking a nap when you have a litter on its' way!
minnies 4 pounds but shes too long and skinny, pups of any size wouldnt be able to pass through her.I might breed one day with the right chihuahua like foxywrench was talking about, proper size,good pedigree etc... most of all i need to make sure im properly financially secure incase of problems.
