Please understand that there is no such thing as a teacup yorkie.
A standard yorkie is considered by the AKC to be 7lbs and under.
Beware of anyone advertising the term "teacup". Yorkies are
bred down in size making some very tiny and possibably causing health problems just to bring in more money by backyard breeders
and puppymills. Hence the name "teacups".
There is loads of information on this site regarding this.
Please do some research so you will get a healthy new puppy.
Good luck.
