I understand "breeders" are try to breed "teacup" Westies now, too. <sigh>
Oh my gosh. Teacup Westies is just not right. Heck, they are already small. They are bred to be STRONG and sturdy - with a serious attitude to match. It's part of who they are.

Sometimes, I feel we should leave well enough along when it comes to our dogs.

That WAS a cute dog though. A 3 lb Westie never entered my mind!

I have to say ... and this is just MY opinion . . . that if you want a Westie; you should get a Westie. If you want a Yorkie . . you should get a yorkie. I love their differences .. . the white coat and the dark coat - when you mix them they don't look like either dog.

I'm sorry and don't mean to offend anyone. To each his own.
