Theres not such thing as a micro t-cup and finding one of these tiny yorkies isnt as easy as it seems.Firstly,you have to find a responsable breeder that DOESNT BREED TINIES to prouduce tinies because this is cruel and these breeders dont care about breeding their 2lb females and risking their lifes,they just want the money that the tiny pup will get them.I would find a responsable reputable breeder that breeds healthy,good sized females and chose the smallest pup of the litter,it may not weigh 2lb´s full grown,but you have more chances of it being healthy if its mother was the right size for breeding..and it wont cost you $3000 which is my eyes is OUTRAGEOUS!.This is what I mean when I say that some breeders perposly try to breed tiny yorkies to later charge these rediculous prices.Can I ask why you want such a tiny yorkie? I have a 16 month old 2lb yorkie and to be honest its not all fun and games..theres alot more to it that people thinking its cute because its tiny

They are extremely fragile,most never grow out of hypoglycemia due to their tiny size and they are NOT GOOD to have a round small kids.On the other hand my 9lb yorkie is so much easier to look after.We dont have to watch her like a hawk around my kids and she is no where near fragile..she can hold her own VERY well

I would honestly think about getting a tiny yorkie,especially if its going to cost you $3000...no breeder can garantee a 2lb yorkie and if this breeder is promising you a "micro t-cup" then that its self is a big red flag.I know that the smaller they are,the more expensive they are..but charging $3000 seems like a warning sign to me.When a breeder uses the term t-cup,baby faced..etc,its better to look else where because they are selling you something that doesnt exist

All these terms are to be able to charge these sort of prices and get away with it.
