I find it quite odd that they would do that. You would think that a good rescue would be all for promoting education about the fact that "teacup" is typically used just for marketing. However...that could be the easiest way to describe them, and maybe they figure it will get more people to foster and adopt. But still, you would think they would stray from using that...

When it comes down to it, "teacup" is just a word, kinda like "teeny" or "itty bitty" or something, so I could see the side of using it, though I probably wouldn't...
Yes, good and/or reputable is the key here. Everyone must remember that there is good and bad in everything.

A reputable yorkie rescue would never use that term...no matter how much attention it brought. It would be the attention they did not want anyway.
