I bet that is not the truth. My vet told me that the smallest full-grown dog in the world (known at least) weighs about 1.5 pounds, so I would guess that the breeder is either lying about the weight a little or the age, which could be more likely. Did you see pics? Was the hair still black and tan? My husband and I very briefly had a 1.5 lb 3 month old Yorkie who immediately went into HG shock so bad that had to take to emergency room and it was touch-and-go. We had to return her because she needed someone who could watch her 24 hours a day. Trust me, a teensy dog may sound cute, but, oh, the heartbrake and vet bills. You are going to love your baby regardless of size - teacup or teapot! Our Yorkie, Bear, was a "teacup", but after neutering developed a big apetite and is now a teapot

- and I love him more and more every day!
