Texas Teacups - DISGUSTING. - YorkieTalk.com Forums

I dont know if you can remember a thread from a while back about TexasTeacups.com.
They has what looked like a stuffed toy and they were claiming it was the smallest dog in the world. Remember?
I sent them an email pretending I was interested in the pup just to find out if it was real and to find out a little more about them. I told them I was from the UK and asked if they were willing to ship a pup to me. THEY AGREED!!

I totally forgot about the whole thing until now, because they have just sent me this email:

Rachael x · 12-20-2010, 01:07 PM

RachelandSadie · 12-20-2010, 01:19 PM

Rachael x · 12-20-2010, 01:22 PM

They are putting them in a 'sale' as if they are a toy or clothes or something.

chachi · 12-20-2010, 01:23 PM

LaurenPatrice · 12-20-2010, 01:26 PM

I actually know someone who bought a chi from them. She was so tiny she got ate by a coyote. This lady I know is the one who gave me my schnauzer. She bought the schnauzer because he was "cute". She didn't know he was going
To be 20-25 lbs! So she gave him to me because he was too big for her ONE pound chihuhua's! This place sickens me and it's a REAL place... Believe me. They have a store in Texas. It's in a shopping mall, a pet store yet they think they are good breeders! This place IS a puppy mill, full force.

WOW I dont even know what to say to that.

Its terrible and so very very sad.

Rachael x · 12-20-2010, 01:32 PM

They brag about their 'celebrity' customers a lot it seems.
This will make some people buy from them because they want a dog just like their favourite celebs.
Does anyone else have any stories about these evil people? maybe it can get the word out about what they are REALLY like.
It's obvious to us looking at their site that its swimming in red flags, but many people are uneducated when it comes to these things and wont realise how bad they are.

capt_noonie · 12-20-2010, 02:50 PM

I poked around and this is what I found.

Many poor reviews on yelp but got filtered. Seems like they move and change their shop name slightly every year or so. They were in Houston, now in Forney. Filtered Reviews for Texas Teacups | Yelp

TexasTeacups-TeacupandToyPet.com (Dog Breeder)

They are also known as Teacup and Toy Pets
