I don't recall anyone ever getting "attacked" for having a smaller Yorkie, or loving them.
They do need more care in general as they are more delicate. I have 1 that took a step wrong and broke her foot in 3 places. Just from twisting wrong. Her foot is only the size of a large grape.
Some have open fonts, some have organs to large for their bodies, some always have hypoglycemic problems, and some have liver issues. Some are also healthy and happy.
Breeding tinies are a completely different story. Just web search "teacup", yorkies for sale and look. You should be able to see the motive for breeding is income not to produce quality pups. It usually the persons lively hood.
Search just this site and you'll see why it can be dangerous to breed tiny females. IMO This is why its discouraged by the YTCA. Breeding tiny females, not owning them. |
