On the Teacup thing .... I agree to a point with what you said...The word itself doesn't bother me in the least.
But....it's only a descriptive term & even the Westminister DOG Show put a shout out to the world that 'there is no such thing as a teacup Yorkie'.
Many times people really don't know this & and many times it's used strictly to command higher prices in yorkies...
While I agree with you that we shoud be respectful of anyone using the word - we also can share what we know and let them know there really is no such thing as a "Teacup Yorkie". It's just a matter of educating people who may not realize this....
