I see what you mean. She is trying for the "rise" -- we're stuck playing her game lest we leave incorrect information for other new puppy owners who may be searching for answers. Sometimes a toss-up when you know someone is baiting but you want to ensure Yorkie Talk remains a place where CORRECT information is found. At least the pup sounds to be okay FOR NOW and there is sufficient correct information about the "teacup" term being just plain wrong for Yorkies. I hope this is the only thing the OP has wrong in her Yorkie information bank. Would hate to see her have other crazy ideas that might affect the poor puppy's health and not listen when good, solid information is offered.
BTW -- I am right there with you about yorkies and being left alone. It seriously saddens me when I read of people who are crating these tiny puppies from day one and leaving them alone for hours at a time! So many going right back to work after getting a tiny puppy and leaving it in a tiny crate. What a horrible life for a pup -- not much better than a puppymill.
I think a LOT of people really need to re-evaluate if they have sufficient time to provide for a Yorkie! Then I read others who are crating them when they ARE home, like they are a little toy on a shelf to be taken down only when a person feels like playing with them. I want my pups to be part of the family! Interacting, loving, playing, LIVING their life with us!
