I often see a lot of post where people say their dogs are 3-4 pound range and they were hoping they'd get bigger and that might very well be the case for them but it wasn't for me. when I was searching I wanted a pup 3-4 pounds, now if max were to get to 10 pounds I would love him the same. I don't think that people should be looked at as a bad owner because they want a smaller pup. Breeders have a tendency to say they don't breed for money but yet they price the smaller ones higher, why? never understood how a breeder can say there's no such thing as a teacup but then price their smaller ones as teacups  sorry for the novel lol |
Very few breeders don't breed for the money; there is a huge difference in breeders. Some truly love the breed and have spent years studying it, and going to shows, for them breeding is a passion not an attempt to make a few dollars. They are honestly trying to improve the breed, and don't price male and female puppies differently or smaller size puppies differently. They never use the teacup word, and truly are only looking for the best possible homes for their pups. They insist upon limited registration in most cases, or have their pups neutered before placing. These are the ones that don't breed for money, and in my opinion, the only ones who should be breeding.
