What breed? How old are they? What do they weigh? What do the parents weigh? What you feeding them? Are they just small or skinny?

Well that don't sound right, do they seem sick, how's their poops? I know a guy had some pups that were small for a long time from giving the bitch flea meds when she was nursing, the ones that survived ended up catching up mostly but it took a while

10 pounds is small, but a couple of years ago we made a cross with 2 cur dogs, male weighing 65 in hunting shape, gyp maybe 50, the pups stayed wormed, fed good feed, plenty excersize, and all of them were a lot smaller than expected, maybe 40-45 pounds grown and fat.
