1) What do you call a yorkie that is under 3 lbs full grown?

2) For those of you that have bred and ended up with a very small yorkie, do you still sell those with limited registration, or did you end up just keeping it?

I just wanted to know because I have a very small female that still weighs only 14 ounces at 4+ weeks. Even the runt of my litter has by-passed her in size. I am currently planning on keeping her because she is so small. I know that as an owner, people are quick to jump on people that call small yorkies teacups. But this is a term that has been coined by the public. If the public goes by this phrase then why not just go with the flow?

Well, if she can fit in a tea cup, that's what you should name her. My Maggie is already 3.5 lbs at 13 weeks, so she is wayyyyyy past fitting in a tea cup. I guess she is a mixing bowl.

No, I'm not trying to make enemies here, just curious.

If your baby girl will fit in a tea cup, then that's what you should name her. My Maggie is already 3.5 lbs, at 13 weeks. She is way past the tea cup size. I guess Maggie would fit in the Mixing Bowl catagory.
