I have to try to remember that to John Q Citizen, "teacup" is nothing but a term of size, and NOT a very accurate size indicator! What I consider "teacup" size may be a lot smaller than what YOU consider a "teacup" size yorkie. We just need to contnue to explane teacup is not actually a denotation of a specific size in a Yorkie. Schnauzers and poodles come with these distinct size classifications.... The first thing out of my mouth when anyone says "do you have teacup size yorkies?", I breed to comply with the breed standard. Occasionally, I will get "throw backs" that go OVER the breed standard of 7 lbs....and I also occasionally will get tiny little runts that I know will be underweight when mature....these babies are kept by me or go to homes that are longtime Yorkie owners and are thoroughly knowledgable with the frailities of these tny babies.....". |
