Welcome to the dogs community!  I have no breeding experience, so hopefully other members can help you with this question.  In the meantime, you might try contacting the German Shepherd Dog Club of America.  It is the official breed club connected with the AKC in the US.  Check out their web site, as there is a wealth of information on breed standards, health and genetics that would be useful for any breeder.

I know that to have a smaller male to breed with a larger female, is excellent!!
Sometimes during the stage of heat w/female, the male does needs assistance, you need to speak w/other breeders and talk w/them on styles and how tos and don'ts....
You can look in the newspaper w/your breed for sale, and just call them and inquire, finally you will bump into one experience breeder who will love giving you the tips...
When I started to breed, I was so stupid, I had the same questions plus some, LOL
So, I found a paper and called on the for sale puppies and started asking questions, and met some wonderful individuals who breed at home, and I got taught...
Good luck to you...you always want smaller male to the female...infact, one breeder lady took my dogs to help them connect, and I paid a small fee...
