I just don't think people realize what they do to get their puppies that small.
There is no way of really telling what size your dog will be full grown. I mean their are the growth charts but for me they were off a little. Pixie was supposed to be 5lbs by the charts....lol she has surprised us and is 7 lbs, the Vet says she would like to see her at 6.5 so we are working on it.
Okay when IIIII say teacup I am referring to a healthy puppy that is just small! Just like those who call their babies teapots on here are referring to their healthy over 7lbers! Just like humans some are smaller and some are bigger! It's life! Not every litter is going to have all 7lb adult yorkies.
