October 24 2012 at 6:27 AM Report abuse Permalink rate up rate down ReplyThere is no such breed as "tea cup" anything. It just means poorly bred or undersized. It's a ploy for backyard breeders (the people placing ads in newspapers) and puppy mills which supply ALL pet stores that sell dogs. You want to find a true, reputable, professional breeder, attend dog shows and AKC sanctioned events. Otherwise, you' re just part of the problem, unless you adopt from shelters and rescue organizations.

October 22 2012 at 3:45 PM Report abuse Permalink +1 rate up rate down ReplyI have a 2 pound yorkie that is well over 13 years old. He is healthy as can be. He has NEVER had any health problems! Just because they are small doesn't mean they automatically have issues!!!!
October 22 2012 at 4:53 PM Report abuse Permalink rate up rate down ReplyExactly right. How sad for this cute little pup. It really should be against the law to breed dogs like this.
October 22 2012 at 4:56 PM Report abuse Permalink rate up rate down ReplyCome on folks. It's a Yorkshire terrier puppy. They're like hamsters when born and stay tiny till full grown.
October 22 2012 at 3:41 PM Report abuse Permalink rate up rate down ReplyIf it's a "tea cup " dog the breeder ought to be ashamed. That breed is supposed to be five to seven pounds full grown.
what is the story with mutant dogs ,yes it happens naturally but this dog was bred to be the cute little dog .this dog will never be able to go out alone or use stairs or play w/ kids. whats the matter w/ a regular size yorkie its small enough. this little guy is going to spend a lot of time at the vet ,abnormal size heart,and organs as well. its happens with big dogs as well great danes for example are wonderful dogs and they are certainly big enough why breed for bigger when youll have major ortho problems.
