This is a respectful community forum were respect is given, and opinions are given Whether you asked for them or not. "If" you are a breeder you should know the correct term is yorkie, not "teacup" even if that is what "your eyes see" . By using the term teacup you are suggesting you breed for smaller then standard yorkies which ethical breeders do not breed for. That is my opinion which I am entitled to. |
the information on poodles is false sorry just wanted to point that out no breed is categorized as teacup. Poodles in the US come in 3 sizes Toy, Miniature, and Standard which are all determined on height solely there is no weight charting for the breed. Toys are 10 inches and under while Minatures are 11-15 inches and Standards are over 15inches and have no limit on height.
