 little hart kennels-texas
After re-reading the posts I see what made her upset. She felt she was being judged for wanting a teacup. I have learned here there is no such thing as a teacup and people who take the tinies and breed them to produce what they call teacups are unethical and care nothing about the dogs. they do it for $. (See you've taught me well). I have a tiny, 2.6, that was breed from a show breeder in Romulus MI. I recently looked up her linage. Her name is Belle of the Ball. She is now 5, beautiful and healty ( does have LP's #2)
I didn't get her because I wanted attention from others. I rarely take her out. I have a large extended family and she gets enough socialization from our visitors. I got her because I thought she was adorable. Pre YT if I were looking, I would jump all over a current e-bay classified pet listing for 1.1lb 12 week old ,in warren MI from flowman75. The new me would see a huge red flag and look the other way. Now, post YT, my advise to the OP would be, If you have your heart set on a tiny, do your research and find a good breeder following the advice learned here . If the breeder thinks you'd be a good mom for one 3lbs or under I'm sure you could get on her waiting list.
The small ones do require more care. I'm a stay at home wife so she's rarely left alone. She has to be feed by hand or she won't eat. And she loves to be held, if shes not on my lap I'm carrying her around with me. My husband calls her my parasite and has threatened to buy velco and permanely attach her to my chest. LOL |
