Hi Alex, there is no such thing as a teacup chihuahua. If you want a dog you have to prove it to your parents.How do I get my parents to get me a Tea cup Chihuahua?
Puppies aren't toys; they are living breathing babies that need love and attention, not to spend half of their life in someone's HOT purse!





Please take the time to read this and educate yourself! The lives of many little dogs depend on you educating yourself, and others, not to buy into this phase.





This is a topic that most assuredly needs to be brought to the attention of perspective puppy buyers.





Let's start out by saying ';THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS A ';TEACUP'; PUPPY';.





With that in mind, let me say this; It seems as though there is a bunch of people who are insistent on buying tiny puppies in the 2 to 4 pound range. Also commonly referred to as a ';Teacup puppy';.





The word ';Teacup'; has been used to merely describe the size of a puppy, meaning it is very small and will probably be under the standard size which is 4 to 7 pounds for the Toy Group, Yorkshire Terrier breed. We cannot imagine anyone wanting anything smaller than that! Their bones are VERY fragile and can be broken by jumping off of a coach, falling off of a bed, being stepped on or worse.





Many breeders, while tacking a whooping price on a puppy, ';claim'; to breed so called ';teacups'; as if they were a breed all their own. Don't be fooled! They are NOT a breed of their own.





If a breeder says they specialize in ';teacups'; RUN, RUN, RUN for the hills! Most ';TEACUP'; puppies are in reality, a premature puppy.





Most females are bred on the ninth through the fifteenth day of their heat cycles. Eggs can be fertilized for up to 72 hours after any of these breeding's. Therefore, it is possible to have puppies conceived up to a week or so younger than the puppies first conceived in a litter. However, when the first puppies conceived are mature and ready to be born, labor starts and all the puppies will be born, no matter when they were fertilized.





Some of the problems that may be encountered are both genetic and congenital in these tiny babies and the list is a long one.





The risk of open fontanels (soft spot from the cranial bone not forming), portosystemic shunts (PSS- abnormal vessel that allows blood to bypass the liver. As a result the blood is not cleansed by one of the bodies filters: the liver.), hypoglycemia, cardiac problems, collapsing trachea, luxating patellas, Leggs Calves Perthes disease, seizures, hydroencephaly, blindness and digestive problems can be increased in these tiny babies.





Problems such as respiratory problems can remain or worsen throughout their lives. These babies frequently are so fragile that they do not live more than a few years. There have been several tiny Yorkies as adults who still had open fontanels and their owners had to carry nourishment with them all the time. Their vets have felt it unsafe to give a full dose of vaccine so the puppies had to get several injections to be on the safe side.





There is no such thing as a ';tea cup'; Yorkshire Terrier, Maltese, Poodle, or any other breed for that matter. They simply do not exist. ';Tea-cup'; is just a marketing ploy given by unethical and unscrupulous breeders to drive up the price of their puppies!








So called ';Teacups'; fetch anything from $1000 to $10,000! This is ridiculous and shameful! There are a lot of chronically, unhealthy puppies because unscrupulous breeders and puppy mills are inbreeding. Some poor darlings only live for a very, very short time!





They take the little teeny, tiny Yorkies and they breed 2 1/2 pounders with 3 pounders ... well, they鈥檙e playing with genetics. You should NEVER breed a female of any breed less than 5 pounds.





PLEASE educate yourselves before buying a tiny puppy whether it is a Yorkie or any other breed. You could be in for months or years of heartbreak not to mention staggering veterinarian bills!





DO YOUR HOMEWORK!!! IF YOU WANT A HEALTHY PUPPY, DON'T FALL FOR THE TEACUP ACT!
You don't. There is no such thing as a teacup chihuahua. It's a label bad breeders put on undersized dogs so that they can charge more money. There is no ';teacup'; size in the official breed standard.





Do some research on the breed and how to acquire one from a responsible breeder. Chihuahuas are a lot of work, they aren't fashion accessories.

First of all their is no such thing as a ';teacup'; all they are runts of a litter. Frankly, they are much more prone to health problems which mean you will spend more money in the long run. Chihuahua's are already very small dog's. Getting a teacup one in my opinion is very irresponsible for both you and the 'breeder'.
1. There is no such thing as a teacup chihuahua





2. Unless your parents want a dog themselves you can forgot it. A family dog needs to be wanted by everyone and a breed that EVERYONE wants.





3. If they have already said no to having a dog stop asking. No means no.
You do realize there is no such thing as a teacup dog, period. They are just runts that you are buying and they usually don't live longer then two years or so. They are mostly sickly and you will be visiting your vet more then you wish. You should just get a regular sized chihuahua.
don't get a chihuahua, get a pit bull. Sorry, I fell in love with mine. If you want a small dog, get a Yorkie, they are a lot cuter.
show them that your responsible and you need to learn how to handle things to make your more smarter in the real world
GET A BIG OL' SAINT BRENARD
Show them how responsible you are... help around the house, take the trash out, do the dishes, etc... anything to show them that you can be responsible enough to feed an help take care of him. Good luck!
