One more teacup yorkie story!! http://www1.wsvn.com/features/articl...wrong/MIA5217/ I cannot believe the lady is mad because the dog would be bigger than 3lbs.I just wish they would clarify even more things about teacup...but at least they contacted Betty Gansky from YTCA. Hopefully people that saw it learned a little more and will do their research before buying a yorkie! |
I watched this last night!!!! I couldn't believe the lady actually called Channel 7! |
Poor Diamond. At least her mom loves her anyways. The breeder told us Brody would probably be 4 lbs. but he is bigger than that and I am so glad because I know he is healthy. A healthy puppy is more important than a tiny puppy - hopefully people realize that. |
Peoples are really Pea Brains with their teacup Yorkies , Teacup Poms or Teacup whatever . If they want teacups , they just have to go to the porcelain store and buy it . |
Gee whiz! But you know, the truth came out on top! I am glad that they got a spot on the news to say THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS TEACUPS! And that any breeder who advertises them is money hungry! How 'bout that!!!! |

I loved it!!!!!!!!! |
How can she say she loves her "baby" and say the dog was a dissappointment at the same time? My other furkid was promised to weigh no more than 20 pounds and she grew into 50 before she was done, and while I hadn't antipicated that lol..... I certainly could never say I was let down that she grew into what she was meant to. Poor Diamond for not living up to silly expectations, those extra 3 or 4 pounds she grew into must be a terrible nuissance for taking up extra space. Jeni |
Ok Mac was suppose to weigh between 5 and 6 Lbs and is only 2 1/2 I was cheated out of pounds and I want them back. :mad: It really is ashame that people are buying tiny dogs becuase it is more of a status symbol than wanting a pet as a member of their family to love. |
It didn't say what the dog weighed...Did it get huge or was it like 5 lbs? |

I think when people pay the $ for a smaller dog and it gets bigger than what the breeder said it would they are disapointed in the fact that they may have paid a lot of money for what they were told about a puppy not get over a certain size. I would like to believe they have grown attached to the dog itself and loves it no matter what. A size of a dog is not promised it would be like the Dr. telling your child is going to have small feet and 1 year later your child is wearing a size 15 shoe. I just wish breeders would not tell people puppies will stay small as adults if they have no way of telling. |
I just read the clip and I am really embarssed for her! Oh could she call the news station and complain about something soooooooo ridiculous! These little (or big) guys are living creatures! Would she have done the same thing if she adopted a baby and later in life had brown hair instead of blond... I thought you were suppose to have unconditional love for your baby (human or dog or cat, etc.) and that the wish was "as long as they are healthy, that's ALL THAT MATTERS!" I guess there are truely all sorts of characters out there. I feel sorry for Diamond, and I pray she has a very Happy and HEALTHY life! |
I wish peoples will stop crying about wanting Yorkies smaller and smaller . |

She didin;t want a dog over 3lbs? This is Crazy (with capital C) I didn;t see it yesterday only read today. I personally think she should have researched into the breed and so called "teacups" before going on tv and look dumb (yes, since there is no such a thing) I feel sorry that she didn't buy her yorkie from a serious breeder that would have explained that to begin with...i just hope lil diamond is healthy and loved anyways. As per her being disapointed, i think she means with the breeder and not with the dog itself. Mojo was not suposed to be over 6lbs since no other dog and any generation was the big...but i was in no moment dissapointed with him, thank god the breeder is very honest and from the begining she told me he would be bigger, we just didn;t expect so big (which is still very small to me);) And who knows...maybe Diamonds moma will join YT sometime in the future:D |

I'll tell you size is relative only when you're comparing one thing to another. Now I thought my three cats were smalll, ok change that to two of them, cause one is Porkie Kitty. That was until we got Trace. He is much smaller than those cats (who weigh maybe 11 lbs). Is he cute and tiny? Why yes he is, but that's not why we got him. He was the only pup in the litter (is it a litter if there's only one?) so there wasn't anything other than his parents to compare him to. I hope this news scope reinterated YOU can't guarantee the size of a dog. I've seen runts grow into larger dogs than their biggest litter mate. If Trace turns into a porkie yorkie (which judging by the begging, he aspires to do)....then so be it. |
I always think of more after the fact :D Any way a friend of my neice's bought a "teacup" yorkie recently. This dog is the same size as Trace (4 lbs). She paid $4,000 for this dog. That's $3,550. MORE than I paid for Trace. |

Buying dogs are getting to the point where people (some) think that tiny tiny is the way to go but not knowing all the facts and responsibilites that come with a very small dog. I have 2 small yorkies but if they would grow to be 15 lbs I would be glad just like if they were 3 lbs as long as they were healthy and happy. We live in a mixed up world and some time I have to remeber that everyone is not on the same page as me and their brain works different than mine. |
I dont understand the facination with having dinky tiny dogs. I have one that is 4 lbs. Thats small enough to me. |
OMG. I can't beleive that lady. Complaining cause her dog is going to be 3 pounds!!!!! :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: |
I don't think she is upset because the dog is bigger then she thought it was going be I think she is upset because she was charged a couple hundred dollars more for the dog because it was supposed to be small. She did say it was her baby. I think the breeder is wrong for selling "teacup" puppies we know it cannot be 100% on the size and I would prefer a dog who is going to be standard size myself but if you are lied to during the sale then that is cause to be upset. I am not supporting the fact that she wanted a teacup I am supporting the fact that she waws misled by the breeder and charged extra for something that cannot be controlled. |
Ashantay- I agree with you shes upset about the money but its the buyers responsibility to be educated about their purchasing decisions. Any breeder who advertises teacups should be a red flag not to buy from. |
