Oh and those of you who don't believe their is such thing as a "TEACUP"... I beg to differ!! As a matter of fact the Veterinarian pointed out, "Anything under the standard weight of a Yorkshire Terrier, would be considered a "TEACUP". Oh and you right, I haven't been on 'YorkieTalk' for a few years, now I remember why! Wink...Wink!!!  |
The standard weight of a Yorkie is "under 7 pounds"- so there is nothing under the standard.
What an educated vet. Teacups are a marketing ploy for greeders to make big $$$$. I have seen teacups turn out two ways: 1. they are very unhealthy small dogs throughout their life; or 2. they turn into teapots and their owners are baffled.
