Some dog's don't grow to become 4-7lbs...some smaller, some larger....However, I feel that this article is a start for folks to get turned around; so they won't breed a 3lb female to get other 3lb dogs..JMHO
I haven't read the entire article but the last time I picked up a Yorkshire Terrier Magazine (Dog Fancy puplisher) one article called "teacups" those under 3lbs. and another refered to them under 4lbs.

Either way it wasn't the article that was offensive. As usual it is the comments that introduce and follow a posting like this.
