What are your thoughts on 'teacup' dogs and puppies? Why do you think that people are so enamored with the term? If you believe there is such a classification what is your belief based on? How do you classify a 'teacup'?
For me (and many others), the very term makes my blood pressure rise and it's a big pet peeve. There is actually NO such thing as a 'teacup' dog or puppy.
It is a made up term which doesn't exist which is mostly used to sell dogs. Worse, truly undersized dogs are often that tiny due to serious underlying health concerns such as a liver shunt and other various major issues.
Even when by some unusual twist of fate they are relatively healthy, thier lifespan is considerably shorter (about 7 to 8 years) and they are extremely fragile.
What is the deal with teacups?
