I'm going to say that most people on here know there is no such thing as a "tecup" per se but I wish people would not get so offended, specially when people here use it. It is mostly only being used as a term to describe a tiny dog.

Sorry 2 more cents. LOL If we let the people know there is no such thing as a teacup and tell them why people realy use that turm then people might not go looking for one. Say you take your dog to a park. Someone comes to you and ask is that a teacup? You dont tell them there is no such thing and why.... So they think I might want a dog like that. A few weeks later they go looking for a teacup.. Now you might have just stoped one bad breeder from makeing big bucks off of someone that didnt know anybetter. Does that make any sense.
