Teacup Dog Care

Everyone knows that a dog can be your best friend because it will give without expecting to receive anything back. You can get even more attached to a teacup dog since you can hold, coddle, sleep, pamper, and dress it. The saying “a dog is a (wo)man’s best friend” is very true.

Choosing a teacup dog as a pet should be researched before actually selecting this group of dog. If the only reason you are choosing this group of dog because you’ve seen Paris Hilton with her teacup Chihuahua and you also want to look “hot”, you need to rethink your choice because taking care of a teacup is much more difficult taking care of a larger group of dog. A teacup needs extra care cause of its small size, normally needs a lot of attention, and can’t be left alone for a long period of time.

The American Kennel Club (A.K.C) has not recognized the word teacup as a description of a very small dog; however, many dog owners and breeders have described a teacup as being a dog smaller than the toy group. The teacup is determined by the size and weight of the dog. The most common breeds that are in this group are the Chihuahua, Puddle, Yorkie, Maltese, Pomeranian, Shih Tzu, Pug, dachshund, and Terrier. Teacup dogs are primarily kept as a pet not as working dog because of their small size.
