"tea cups" are like runts of the puppies
so they're more suceptable to get sick and etc.
the "uneducated" public wants smaller dog because they are "cuter" or they can put them in purses or any other reason the demand is higher
and just like any product with higher demands, it costs more
hence irresponsible breeders will go against the breeding rules by mating tiny little dogs (that are too tiny to give birth or what not) in hopes to produce more tiny "tea cup" puppies despite their health to "jack up the price" because they're small to make more money. |
