Is my yorkie too big ? - Page 3 - YorkieTalk.com Forums

The words T-cup or TEACUP are strictly to assure that more of your money leaves your pocket and goes into the breeders' pockets. Actually, with all the info on internets I am surprised that any breeder would dare use that phrase as the buyer should see them as the dishonest persons they are..

I know that now, and makes me mad, but live and learn I guess. That is the first one the mother I have. She is close to 9 lbs now so teacup NO. Is there any chance you know what the size limit is. Mine is only 4.5 normal weight and was got 6 times, just a little nervous. Let me know if you do, thanks
I am sick of breeders lies but she is here and she is a part of the family now. I wouldn't give her up for the world, but I still think they should be kicked off for lying.

My Baby Is 5.9 Lbs And Only 13 Weeks. I Guess It All Depends On The Puppy. I Was Worried That He Was Too Big At First, But The Vet Says He Is Healthy!

Thank you, but the question I have is my other yorkie too small. The vet said it was up to me and that she is healthy. Her normal weight is 4.5 tops/ She is due Feb 27th. So far she has only gained half a pound, but my other yorkie the bigger one gained fast towards the end. I was wondering if you or maybe your friends could help me. I am worried about her, she clings and is so picky, most times won't eat and when she does it isn't much

My husband got me a Yorkie from a broker(not a breeder) in Manhattan and she represented it as a teacup. The dog was 1.5 lbs at 12 weeks. He was soooooooo sick. We returned him after three days and 3 seizures. The &$@! didn't return our money. We had to take her to court, we won, and she still hasn't paid. After we get our money, I will post her name.We are so much happier with our Jackson. He is 6 months and weighs 5.7 lbs and is still growing. If he hits 6 or 7 lbs I'll be thrilled!

Oh my Gosh! That is terrible! They should make her pay you! What an awful experience. So glad you have a happy and healthy dog now. Some people would have been scared off to get another dog after that experience. Here's hoping you get your money back! Pat
