Answers:
what she weigh? how tall is she? a pic? can't help much with out those.i'll be back.
if shes any of thoses breeds she wont get big she will be really small
if you look at her paws, that will give you a clue.. big paws, big dog, small paws, small dog..
She will probably be a small dog if you think she is a shih poo or a malti poo, both breeds are small. I don't really know how to tell them apart from each other though...
Thats hard to say 2-3 times her size now. I would guess no more the 15 pounds at the most. 7-10 pounds maybe.
Poodles eyes are real round and close together
If she is a shihpoo her eyes will be more on outer side of her head
same if she is a maltipoo.
If she is a mix she will have real soft coat with just a wave to it if she is a poodle she will have a tighter coat you will see it more when she is wet
I would look into www.DogChannel.com for answers on your dog. You can look at all of the different breeds that you think she might be and find some sort of balance.
What ever she weighs at 8 weeks and multiply by three. This will give you a good estimate about her weight as an adult.
Just curious- why and how much did you pay for a mixed breed dog?
We have a toy poodle--she weighs 7 pounds and is not as large as our cat. If she's a mix with one of the other breeds you mentioned, she'll still be small, but she may be closer the size of her other parent--which still wouldn't be big.

As was said by someone else, the paws are a good indicator--puppies tend to have paws close to adult size when they're still small--and sort of "grow into" them.that's one reason they might seem kind of awkward and gangly.
First of all, why didn't you question all of this where you bought her? Secondly, puppies shouldn't go to homes until AT LEAST 8 weeks old. Thirdly, there's nothing you can do about it now except LOVE HER.
