My comment wasn't to or about you...it was about the lady in the article...the portion I highlighted...
I can't believe she had just went through all that with her "teacup" and then went on about how she would do it again...
I'm well aware of the "teacup" and "teapot" and what not 'cutsey' terms owners use to describe a dog; terms that breeders should not be using, as well, the actuality that "teacups" occur naturally...it is the purposeful breeding for them I personally take issue with.

And that - "YES" there are greedy breeders out there breeding "runts" to "runts" trying to "give the people what they want". But in reality "the people" are going for "cute" and not realizing that these "cute tiny puppies" come with a lot of heartache. Yes, there are quite a few lucky ones out there with healthy puppies - but the majority of these "teacups" will come with a lot of health issues.

This is why I posted. Not to condone it!
