I think we have given information and advice on purchasing "teacup" dogs....

"The term "teacup/Tcup/T-cup anything" has become a sales ploy to charge more money. ...That's the simple truth. The Maltese is a "toy dog". They are small already. Our American Maltese breed standard states "Seven(7) pounds and under, with four(4) to six(6) pounds preferred". I guarantee that the lower end of the scale Maltese is quite tiny."
http://www.foxstonemaltese.com/teacupmaltese.htm

"Avoiding the hype. Have you heard these phrases? Teacup Maltese? Tiny Toy Maltese? Extreme Tinies? Some breeders use these cutesy phrases as "marketing terms" for the different weights that Maltese come in. All of these phrases are made-up. Yes, certainly, Maltese come in different weights, but they do NOT come in different weight "varieties". Whether they weigh 4 pounds or 6 pounds or 8 pounds, they are called, simply, Maltese. Some are simply smaller or larger than others. The larger individuals are sturdier, so don't dismiss them as good pets."

read that website and understand what you will go through later in terms of health problems.

"In fact, I do NOT recommend a Maltese under 4 pounds. These individuals are great risks in the health department. Their bones are extremely fragile. There is not enough room in their mouth for healthy teeth. Their internal organs are often weak and can fail suddenly. They tend to have great difficulty regulating their blood sugar and can suddenly fall into hypoglycemic comas.

Responsible Maltese breeders never try to produce these tiny high-risk creatures. If a tiny one pops up in one of their litters, they do their best to find the best home that can keep it alive, yes, but they try hard NOT to produce them in the first place because it's not fair to the poor little creature.

i think cos if u get a small size dog, i mean teacup size, their organs are not fully developed. all so small small tiny tiny.
Hugo may look very cute and tiny, but u hv 2 take extra care of him. he's very fragile de.
