Hardly a teaPot!" first it was an inside joke and if you had been on here when I first joined you would understand why it was a joke. I thought I was buying a very small yorkie and he only weighed nine ounces at eight weeks so since both parents were small, I thought he would be small also. The "teapot' comment was made in reference to others calling their large yorkies, "teapots' when people come on here nearly every day wanting "teacups'. We know there is no such thing.

Next, I was not looking for a 'status symbol" when I bought my baby. I live in very rural kentucky and most people around here don't even know what or yorkie looks like nor do they have the money to buy it. FYI, my yorkie was purchased by my husband for our thirty sisth wedding anniversary. he knew that I had wanted one all my life. Also, FYI, I don't care if my baby makes a "tea kettle'. I almost lost him Thanksgiving and struggled for two or three days just to keep him alive but even before that, from the moment I laid eyes on him, he has been my baby no matter what. So there!!!!!!!!
You have the rest of the story as paul Harvey would say.
I wouldnt let it bother you Sugars mom. I read your post and I knew you were just having fun when you posted he could be a teapot. I dont understand why some people on here have so many problems with small yorkies but there are alot of poeple on here with them so they really just need to get over it. I think small yorkies are adorable.
