Teacups can com from ,for example, 5 pound dogs its genetically possible and some breeders although not show dog breeders are just as if not better... good at what they do and they are biologically and genetically informed on how to breed down the best quality dogs into what they want ie...temperament, healthy, size, etc...im not talking about any backyard breeder or puppy mill...Please read and understand what im saying dont close your minds to just oh a teacup it must be a puppymill...No! thats not what im saying...my pup is tiny (not the smallest) and came out of 5 and 6 pound parents. All im saying and maybe some others is i reserve the right to call my pup watever i want...and stop arguing i already did my research and i know what im doing...im just defending bentleymommie (originally) |
I re-read this whole thread last night, believe me I had better things to do w/my time. I did not see 1 post which attacked the OP. In fact, a post of her's was deleted bc she attacked a member that was trying to help. Then you come in 3 months later & cause more drama.
I want to know your view on where the word 'teacup' comes from, except the obvious fact that you like that word & are choosing to use it. Why use it when it stems from such misery & pain from the enslaved poor puppy mill pups? That is what I don't understand & if you choose to stay ignorant, that's not my problem. But know this, every time you use that word, you are advertising for these vile sick greedy online brokers/ re-sellers, puppy mills & BYB's, sending them unsuspecting people to purchase their 'teacup' puppies.
Yes, even reputable breeders will have a tiny in a litter. But they will never advertise it as a 'teacup'. If they do, they are NOT reputable.
