I have a "Teacup Akita"! He is 127 lbs, do you think that lady would
say he is too fat?? Sorry... I am stupefied with folks who just have to
approach BIG CHI owners!!
Luna is always (well most of the time) called "Taco Bell Dog", Hey!!
There's the Taco Bell Chihuahua!!! - I say, she isn't Mexican, she is
Cuban!...lol

SOME breeders know the word,"teacup" also spells $$$$. It is a shame. You
should be paying for a chi with a healthy linage, not size.Alot of people are
gullable.

ROFL... I love the "teacup great dane"statement. My best friend has acouple of
great danes (ok she has more then a couple of dogs... she has2 great danes, an
english mastiff, a bull mastiff and a st. bernard)...I see ads around here all
the time listing "teacups"... A lady down thestreet from me just got a little
girl that is only 2lbs full grown... tobreed. She said she paid $2500 because
it is a "rare teacup". I justwish people would take the time to research a
breed before getting one.Both AKC and the Chihuahua Club of America state that
there is noclassification for "teacup". Besides the fact I wouldn't think
youwould want to breed a little that is that [email protected]
