Yes, people do get rid of them because of size. The tiny dog is a fashion statement these days and the puppy mill suppliers will say anything to sell those puppies. Lots of "over sized" Chihuahuas and Maltese and "designer" dogs go in those shelters, too. |
So sad!! Do you have a link with a pic of the poor little girl? I can't take her as I am not working right now, I am lucky I have Miles. Maybe I can post it on Facebook.
