but I really don't understand why everyone gets so upset about the "teacup" word. I know there isn't any size classification for Yorkies and I certainly don't advocate breeding any female less than 5 lbs. but why do we care if someone calls our baby a teacup?
People ask me all the time if Little Bit is a teacup or toy Yorkie. If I'm feeling talkative, I very politely tell them that all Yorkies are considered toys and there isn't a teacup classification but if I'm not, I just say (still nicely) that I don't think she is going to be very big.
At 3#, I've never seen a teacup she could fit in or even a soup mug, but the term doesn't offend me. JMO
