Great post! When I started searching for my first yorkie I had no intention on her being as small as she is. I would have been fine with having a dog in the 4 to 7 lb range.. or even bigger if that was what was in store but that isn't want I got so I learned to adjust life to fit Bella's needs.
I hear people use the term teacup all the time when I'm out with her, it irritates me because I feel like it labels her as some sort of freak in the dog world. I try my best to just say, there is no such thing as a teacup and walk away. The worst is one of the receptionists at my vet's office who also calls her a teacup... it irks me worse then anyone else saying it. They will say, oh is she a teacup yorkie and I simply say, she is just a yorkie.. nothing more, nothing less |
