Of course its just a word....unfortunately this word has had detrimental results for many, many, many Yorkshire Terriers.....it is a word horrible breeders and puppymills use to describe the look they are trying to achieve by poorly, inhumane breeding methods for people that believe this is a breed...many, many, many, many, of these teacup Yorkies are so ill that they don't live very long, their parents suffering....its an industry standard for puppymillers..........simply search the word teacup here and you will see why most of us abhor the term.....
