The reason why most breeder that do breed tinies breed them is for the money and they aalready know its wrong to do it but do it anyway. Greed is the motivating factor and their dogs are always overpriced just to prove it.

When people first started posting about teacups and the breeding of them, people were a lot nicer about posting to it...but over the months, the same issues come up and people just don't respond as they once did.

Society has classified yorkies into different groups and people are purposely breeding tinies for tinies. The puppies can't be much smaller than a larger bitches pups. Gracie's last litter we had 1 that was 3 ounces 2 at 4 ounces and 1 at 5 ounces. But with a tiny, a 3 ounce pup can be too large for her to pass thus the c-section. It's not like tinies are giving birth to pinkies or something that small.

Once you've been around a while, even your attitude towards certain topics will change. Either you'll ignore them totally as I have or your posts come across as what some would consider rude.

Rebel came from a breeder who's stud was 3 lbs and momma was 5. Rebel is close to 5 lbs now and won't be 6 months old till next week.
