I am probably talking in circles for I was just considering keeping one but decided not to. When my daughter moves out and takes hers with her, I will likely get another one and I would like a small standard size pup. Not obsessed with anything. If he grows bigger, I would love him all the same. My female put on weight from having pups. She was smaller before that. And sure I know the responsibility of a dog. I have a few you know. Well, I think it's up to CKC for the standards of whether you can breed your dogs or not and her pups are healthy. My family has 2 and I know they are fine.

Well I looked up some breeders online with these pups and they looked a bit sickly. And I know what I said some of them do, starve them, that is what they do. It's sick. No, I'm sure not everyone does. I have seen really healthy tiny adults.

I don't know why anyone here is getting in their heads that I would not care about the health of one of my dogs, excuse me, but you don't have a clue what your talking about. So lay off.

I am not caught up on size. I have yorkies that are a good healthy size. I'm not sending them away because they aren't. I just think a smaller one is so adorable but I guess it's an awful thing to think that. Whatever.
