mini girl Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 Just want some thoughts on this - have not done it before but there are some possibilities for the future - have always used males somewhat smaller than my girls - but thinking of possibilities of a mating between a female miniature poodle with a miniature who is about 3 or 4 klos heavier - female about 8 klo male about 11 klo (quite a big mini) - is it safe to do - as said always used smaller males or at least very near to the females size - never had any trouble but just interested to know what difference in size is considered safe for the mother and of course the birth.

Puppoochi Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 I wouldn't think it should be a problem. I would however measure both dogs rather than relying on weight. The dog may be "big boned" and you're bitch might be slightly built? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pockets Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 I wouldn't think an issue at all, most males in most species are always bigger than the females :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bjelkier Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 I don't think it's an issue. The males of my breed are always bigger then the females, often by quite a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
