I totally understand why people like tiny Yorkies, I just don't think there are very many people who should have them. Even when they are healthy they require extra care and caution.
But they are adorable and I wouldn't have minded if Shelby stayed tiny. I am at a stage in my life where I could handle it. (meaning old and no small children around) When I went searching for a pup, I wanted one on the small side but I didn't even consider going to a "Teacup" breeder. I put the word out with several reputable breeders and they helped me find a little girl. She ended up at 4 1/2 lbs. which is fine. |
