Ditto....where is Deer Park, Texas?! Do you have a website?!
I have a very tiny yorkie, and I have NEVER felt insulted by any of the comments here about them.
I think that we all see "warning bells" on all the "am looking for a small yorkie" threads. People who are SPECIFICALLY looking for "teacups" usually end up buying from BREEDERS who are specifically BREEDING for those tiny sizes, often without regard for other health issues, and yes, those dogs do often end up having physical issues.
I've heard that the "accidental" tinies that occur sometimes in litters are generally much more healthy than ones who were DELIBERATELY bred for. That is the case with my Mazie. She is less than three lbs., and has been incredibly healthy and robust, esp. considering the rough start she got in life.
HOWEVER....she was killed (and I do mean KILLED!) when a HAND CALCULATOR was dropped four inches, onto her head! It's a long story, with an ultimately happy ending, since we were able to do CPR and bring her back around....but it certainly was a reminder of HOW fragile the lives of these little ones are.
Welcome to YT....I hope you stay around and are able to notice that, while "too small" or "too big" often comes up in BREEDING discussions, when we are just talking about our beloved PETS, ALL sizes are adored and admired here.
