Oh man. I get people like this all the time at work. One of my regular customers has 3 yorkies and one is tinier than the other two, being about 3lbs. All 3 of her dogs are such lovers! While the little one gets attention from others I usually just pet the other two. They're so sweet!

Whenever I take Rhia to work I usually get asked if 1. She's definitely a Yorkie. and 2. How much does she weigh? I told one lady the usuall 6.8lbs and she was like, "Oh...so she's not a teacup?" and I said "Nope, she's right within her breed's standards!" Smiled, and walked off. I've gotten better at being nice about it, but I have had to break it to people that there is no such thing as a teacup yorkie.
