Small dogs can have varying litter sizes in their first litter, but typically they have between 1 to 4 puppies. It ultimately depends on the breed of the dog and the individual dog's genetic factors.

A purebred Shih Tzu typically has a litter size ranging from 2 to 5 puppies in her first litter. However, individual litters can vary, and some may have as few as one or as many as seven puppies.

It's important to provide proper care during pregnancy and after birth to ensure the health of both the mother and her puppies.
