You know there's technically no such thing as a teacup yorkie right? A lot of breeders who claim teacup size misstate the age of the pup, saying they are older than they actually are to make them seem smaller. Not the ideal situation to be in. Have you taken the pup to the vet yet to check for parasites? have the vet estimate the age. There is a lot of training the pup should be getting from its mother between now and 12 weeks of age, but now you will have to do it. One of the most common is bite inhibition.
