I don't own a "tea-cup", but I agree with Chelsie 1978, I know people that do own them and they seem to be healthy happy dogs. Then I know people that own bigger dogs and they have health problems. A friend of mine has a big, but not overwieght maltese who hurt his back jumping of a pillow and he had to have a very expensive surgery. So all dogs can be fragile regardless of their size. Any one that owns an animal runs the risk of high expense due to sickness and injury. My moms boxer needs a lot of special attention because she has sugar diabetes and we have to be careful with when and how much she eats and inject her at the right time twice a day, so all dogs can need special attention. |
