I didn't like this... at all. My point of bringing this up here is that it is just "bad form" and would turn a knowledgable "dog person" away, as does the phrase "teacup" etc when describing a breed we care a lot about. |
I'm well aware that the AKC does not recognize the term "teacup". What i'm saying is WHY is teacup such a disgrace when teapot is okay? There's clubs for it and everything but for us who have smaller HEALTHY WELL BRED dogs there's nothing. WHY is that okay? that's my question. And if i'm not able to voice my opinion then maybe I should stop visiting the thread. I don't feel as if I've offended anyone. And believe me...there are plenty of threads that talk about how teacups don't exist so i'm not sure how this is a bad thread. I too care about the breed and i also realize they come in different shapes, sizes, and colors. I'm not stuck on what "standard" is.
