The standard states Must not exceed 7 pounds. However, I have a VERY hard time selling a puppy that will be 6 to 7 lbs. So no, I don't agree that most people wouldn't ask for a "teacup" if they could be sure that the pup advertised would stay within the standard. Those that want small dogs want small dogs period.
