Why Not To Be Misled By A Teacup Yorkie
Are you looking for a teacup Yorkshire terrier to be your bosom canine companion? If you are then there is probably one thing that you have on your mind right now, and that is how to get your hands on someone who breeds teacup Yorkies so that you can get your hands on your new miniature sized dog.
But before proceeding further there is one thing that every person wanting to own a teacup Yorkie knows that there is no such thing as a teacup Yorkie. There is no such breed of Yorkshire Terriers that can be classified as miniature or teacup Yorkies.
In fact the Yorkie breed is already classed as Toy breed anyway in the AKC, and there is most definitely no other definition for teacup Yorkies. Yorkies are by their very nature small in size and stature and although some of them can grow to a larger weight size, for the most part this will be uncommon.
Most Yorkies will come in at a normal weight of between 4-7 lbs normally. And while anything larger is alright, Yorkies which weigh in less the 4 lbs when they are full grown are not considered to be normal.
However, there are unscrupulous breeders out there who will resort to such ploys and plays on words as teacup Yorkies to get your custom. When you’re going around looking for your new Yorkie you will most definitely want to remember this fact. Any responsible Yorkie breeder worth his or her salt won’t sell you a Yorkie that will grow to be undersized.
If you are unsure that how would these people know which Yorkies are going to turn up as undersized, then you should understand that they have years of experience behind them and also know that those puppies who are going to be undersized are generally those who are the runts of the litter.
Most of the breeders take pride in the work they do and this is the reason why no reputed breeder would sell an underweight, teacup Yorkie, to you. This is mainly because they know that small or teacup Yorkies are generally marred by diseases and genetic illnesses.
This can cause a lot of heartache and emotional pain to those owners who are not prepared to deal with this fact. It can cost the owner of a teacup Yorkie a lot of money in order to keep its prized Yorkie in better health.
If a breeder or someone else is trying to sell you teacup Yorkies whatever the sum of money, you are best advised to stay away from this person. They are not genuine and very possibly specialize in breeding small undersized Yorkies, which in itself can be thought of as inhumane since most teacup Yorkies suffer from ill health and can also be more prone to other illnesses and genetic problems.
