how come the term, "teacup yorkie" is incorrect, but "teapot yorkie" is correct?

if someone mentions that they have a "teacup", then people basically give them a 5 paragraph definition about why that term is unacceptable, but when someone mentions their "teapot", then people agree and act like its normal.

If one exists, why can't the other?

did i miss something?
I understand what you are saying. I think the reason people are more leary about the word "teacup" is because some people use that word to try to make more money on a puppy. I think if that issue didn't exist then there wouldn't be a problem with refering to a dog as teacup sized.
