I want to let my dog have one litter of puppies. She is 12 inches to the shoulder. What size would be the safest, as I've only found 14 inch miniatures to stud? Would this be safe as my dog is petite? The studs I've seen seem a lot bigger and broader although they are miniature poodles too. Thanks for your time?

Please don't breed your little dog. The sire should always be smaller than the dam and you could endanger your dog's life.
If you do decide to do this anyway, please keep your little dog under a good vet's care for the duration of her pregnancy. She could very well have trouble birthing the pups and might require a C-section.
Why do you want to breed her? The shelters and rescues are full of dogs needing a home. Over 7 million of them are euthanized a year. Professional breeders spend alot of money on medical tests including genetic ones on both the female and sire to insure the best outcomes for the mom and pups.
I totally agree. Please do not breed your dog. All sorts of dogs are put down every day because they lack homes. Don't breed or buy while shelter pets die!
