I get a combination of mild irritation and slight amusement whenever I have Shelby out with me and people ask if she is a teacup. I know many of you are VERY irritated with that term especially when people brag about the teacup they have at home or the new puppy they got. (don't blame you)

Well, yesterday I was out walking with my little girl and someone asked how old she is and commented on her being smaller than most Yorkies she has seen. Then she asked me if she was a runt?

I cracked up. Thought about you guys and how happy that comment would make you! yay. Someone knows a runt when they see one.

Course I had to tell her she wasn't just the runt of the litter. She "was" the litter.
