Ok..great article but as usual talks about "tea-cups" with out knowing anything about them.
QUOTE:
-------------------------------
"Even healthy teacup dogs demand special attention" "Some of these little dogs are really needy," says Arizona-based breeder Wanda Jones, who calls her business Tucson Tea-Cups. "They panic easily."
They also must be monitored closely. They can break a leg jumping off a sofa, and have questionable immune systems.

This Im sorry is not true.Lady (my 10 month old yorkie) weighs 1lb 13 ounces as has none of the above problems..shes doesnt panic easily,she gets down from the couch with no problems,needs no more monitring than my 5lb yorkie,and has never been ill as of yet (touch wood)..so again we are having to listen to silly comments made by someone who has never actually owned a tiny dog.Why do tiny dogs upset people so much? Why cant they be healthy and normal,but just small? Do they Tell everybody therīre sickly neurotic little animals so that no one will buy them? I just cant understand why people who have never owned a "tiny" stick their noses up in the air when they see them.All of a sudden people are popping up all over the place claiming that "tea-cups" are a big "no no"..the reasons? Because they get sick,you cant breed them,they die younger,they panic....but do the people who claim this actually own one? No!
Iv had Lady since she was 7 weeks old and 8ounces...she has had no special treatment,neither has she needed it..so Im sorry,articles like this just make my blood boil
