THIS is very well said -

and I agree - no one was putting very small yorkies down....

Tinies are NOT for everyone - why try to make them sound easy to care for when most of them really do need special care ? Many people who have very small yorkies have to take special measures for their little ones & there IS more worry involved....NOT ALL people who want small dogs are equipped to care for them....
