Hello, welcome and congrats and doing your research before purchasing your pup!

The reason to stay away from teacups is because there is no such thing. The Yorkie standard is 4 - 7 pounds (of course some may be larger and some may be smaller). Usually people who use the terms "micro, mini and teacup" are backyard breeders or brokers. No reputable breeder will ever call their puppies by those names. And sometimes the smaller pups do have more health issues.

Keep reading on this site as I have learned so much from here and good luck in your search!
