People think of pet names such as teacup, teapot and standard but officially there is no such category for the Yorkshire Terrier. Since people advertize their Yorkies for sale under these pet names it has caused a lot of confusion for the general public. These names are made up, for what ever reason, by people who have nothing to do with changing the categories for the breed. |  great post
