LMAO..... i have a TEAPOT yorkie - Page 3 - YorkieTalk.com Forums

sunshine22 · 08-03-2005, 11:55 AM

I just want to know why...
I don't watch t.v. because I just think it's boring and I'd rather do so many other things. I don't really see many movies other than the ones I take my kids to see. I don't care about famous people because to me they aren't famous, they are just people.
What is it with "teacup" Yorkies?
Is there a famous one who is tiny?
Why do people think that they are supposed to be so so small?
Why do they like tiny ones so much?

I liked Yorkies because they are beautiful, playful, courageous, fun, and small compared to other dogs. I did end up with a small one because I fell in love with her but I don't love her more because she's tiny.
In fact, I wish she was a little bigger so her bones weren't so fragile.
I'll have to forever be worried about her legs and knees being hurt while falling or jumping.
Her neck is tiny.
She wants to be tough but she is fragile because of her size.

Ever since the Paris hilton show became popular, her and her idiot friend Nicole richie kept referring to their dogs as teacup. I'm sure it was started wayyyy before but it really picked up when they started saying it and it became a fashion statement of a dog. But I believe some people just use it to indicate that they are just really tiny.

I think it started w/ Legally Blonde's little Chi. Then Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie added to this already existing problem by actually using the word "teacup". Now everyone wants a tiny, TEACUP dog just like Paris Hilton. But what if next year you see Paris Hilton walking down the street with a giant Mastiff or Lab? What will happend to all these "teacup" dogs? They will end up in shelters! Some people look at these small dogs as fashion statements. It's really a shame.
