If a male puppy that is 11 weeks old weighs 1.5 lbs and his mom weighs 7lbs and dad is 3.5 lbs...what do you think his projected weight is??

Rule of thumb is double the 12 week weight.

hmm how true is that!!.. Peanut was 2 lbs at 12 weeks and he is 4 now lol crazy!!

The 12 week rule works good.

Jackson weighed 6 pounds at 12 weeks old and he is now 12.5 pounds at 11 months old.

I would say your puppy is going to be pretty small no matter what. My male puppy is just over a pound at 6 weeks and he is going to be about 5 lbs. According to the chart, 3 lbs.
