I'd call the under 3 lb-er "small." Calling dogs "teacups" are, to me, a sales pitch to sell dogs that are very small, and to be honest, may have more health problems. I just don't like the implication that since my dog who is over 10 lbs. is somehow not desirable or cute because he's not a "teacup." Plus, the word "teacup" is SOOOO Disney...

You know, in another thread, i was talking about a woman who said, "oh, you have a regular yorkie, mine's a teacup." I think some people believe that "teacup" is a different breed of yorkie altogether, and that's not the truth.

Is there a substantial difference between trees and bonsai? They're both trees. Should we call small yorkies bonsais?although I believe there's a website called bonsaiyorkies.com or something.
