Breeders and puppy stores in general lie and it's awful. False advertisement in terms of sales :tdown:

At 8 weeks my guy was about 2lbs - sold as a "toy"
There is not teacup or regular...Yorkies are a toy breed and as you can see by this thread can vary in size. When yorkies were bred (yrs ago) they were on the larger size (I think around 12 lbs....someone correct me here if I'm wrong). Over the years they have been bred down in size. People will use the words tiny, micro mini, teacup to get more money for them. These words should always be flag when looking for a yorkie.
