unfortunately too many people spend WAY too much thinking they are getting a 'Teacup'...I sure wouldn't want anyone to be obsessed with the cost of my girls - (they were NOT expensive).... but when I hear about people that paid too much and talk about it endlessly - then I usually tune out. To me..in my opinion...it's not saying much for their dogs personality if you have brag about how much you paid.

and I sure wouldn't brag if I overpaid for anything
