I think you are correct. They either buy the soup bowls that look like teacups or the oversized mugs. They normally squish those poor puppies legs into the coffee mugs
Someone posted a video on here once showing someone doing it...poor puppy was crying and looked so unhappy.
I'm much more concerned with health and meeting the standard for the breed than tiny size. I don't want a super tiny yorkie. I want a healthy, well-bred yorkie
