I dont want any papers with them, it would be a house pet only no showing. I do want a small 2- 3 lbs female Thanks~ Ki[/COLOR] |
Teacup? Hello. There are really not classifications as Teacups. Really. It may work better for you to advertise the size in full grown weight that you want. Not meaning to sound rude or anything. Please do not take me that way. It is just easier for people to know what size you want that way. The standard AKC for a Yorkshire terrier is 4-7 lbs. Some say you don't want one too much smaller because you may end up with many Vet bills that could add up quick. Again, I don't mean to step on any toes. Good luck in your search......justus PS: check under members list above for tuffys mommy in Missouri. She has quite an assortment at this time. Good luck Ki |
No such thing as a teacup yorkie. You might want to research some reputable breeders who do not advertise teacups. Reputable breeders know there is no such thing. |
From what I have read and heard is that teacups is just a fad word for sick, underweight, or abnormal puppy. Usually a puppy that is very tiny verses the normal pups in a litter, is sick or has some underlying problem. Also I have heard that the smaller the dog the shorter the life span as far as so called teacups go. Also vet bills, possibly of breaking legs etc, stepping on them, possible problems with hypoglacimea SPELLING? etc are high with a TINY TINY puppy or dog. I would think you would want a Yorkie on the smaller side but MAINLY healthy. I wanted the TINEST I could get until I done some reading and found all the problems with these TEACUPS in every breed. I wanted extremely small but I finally decided that 3 to 5 lbs is small for a Yorkie and that Paris is healthy happy FAT little girl and prefer to get a healthy pup than a TINY sick one. Be very cautious of people who advertize teacup because its just a hype to sell this TINY dog for more money. Good luck in your search. God Bless |
Sorry, I have a small female and most small ones have NO problems. All yorkies small and large have problems. Research proves that the size has nothing to do with it. Hypoglacemia is the problem of the owner NOT the puppy and shouldn't be blamed on them. I will have tiny pups soon--IM me and I will give you details. My female is being bred. When the pregnancy is confirmed I will be able to tell you more but I'm going in blind at this point. All I know is my bloodlines and my testing all went very well proior to breeding and I stand behind my babies as MANY don't. Good luck in your search anyhow and please question people that breed 10 and 15 pound dogs as that is a defect also. |
Heidi is 3 lb. and we have had no problems with her other than gastritous a couple of times and even I get gastritous. :grin2: Her mother was 4 lb. There is no such breed as a teacup Yorky as many have said, they just seem to come in a variety of sizes. S/W |
