Give these people a chance to learn before you attack them, please. I love you guys, you have all helped me out alot, and I want to stay here, but I want to read happy stuff, not stuff about newbies getting attacked on their first post.
Go ahead and attack me. And by the way, I had a teacup. He was amazing. I will continue to use the word teacup in my own house hold because that is how we always refered to Hunter as. However, I will never buy a yorkie from a breeder that advertises Teacup, but I'm still using the word. I have learned something here. |
If one person post an objection to the term, and no one else does, then it is just one persons opinion. If many people reiterate the fact, in a nice way of course, like they have done here, then the person will realize that it is more than just one persons opinion, it is the general consensus.
Call your dog what ever you want, but the message here was not about, "what one wants to call their dog', but rather that a reputable breeder does not advertise "teacup yorkies" so if you see someone advertisng them, it is wise to avoid them.
So if they want a smaller size yorkie, from a reputable breeder, they will have to do more than just look for people advertising teacups.
Everyone was being very helpful and very nice and giving very good advice, and then you cme on here wanting to make an issue out of it, saying you intend to keep calling yours da teacup. WHY???
