I'll add Pocket Yorkies and Ultra-mini/miniature Yorkies to that list of terms to stay away from when looking for a reputable breeder. ANY term that makes you think super-tiny is what they are advertising is a good indicator that that breeder is breeding to create a very small dog in order to make more money. I don't care how the website might ballyhoo the health of the puppies and "health certificates" of the breeding parents, if they are breeding for tiny dogs, beware, there has to be breeding of undersized dogs and the health problems they carry and pass along involved.
