out of curiousity who declared there was no such thing as a teacup chihuahua was it someone on the government or someone who felt they knew better.. i don't see the harm in calling a tiny chi a teacup as it is not demeaning to the dog or belittles their character or their basic animal behaviour is it.. as long as people don't over dramatize the name teacup as being a rare thing it should be aloud , shouldn't it??..

The fact is BYBs and puppy farmers use this nickname as a way to make the runt chi 'rarer' and that way the buyer will pay more.

Then the buyer goes on to boast they have a teacup chi and people will swoon over it and want one themselves.

Then you get the odd few who think 'I can breed too!' and the cycle starts over again...

oh ok i keep forget there are people out there that are just trying to make easy money which is sad as it shows if you word the sale of a pup right there is always someone gulliable enouhg to believe it.. and as far as byb's are concerned i think i am one as i only breed to inlarge our family, because here in aus the breeders desex all dogs before sale and charge prices a lot of chi lovers can't afford.

I found this info. helpful thanks for all the posts!!! I was wondering about some of the terms... great info! thanks

Careful that doesn't catch on and replace the word teacup

Lordy ... so they only sell when their pups are about 6 months old (cos u can't de sex much earlier)? Imagine doing that with large breeds that have big litters ... they'd eat u out of house and home. If I kept pups from a litter that long, I'd bond with them and never sell them lol.
