Description

I know that many of todays Teacup Yorkshire Terrier breeders use different names or terms to describe the adult size size of the puppy Teacup like: tiny, miniature yorkie, tea cup, teacup, mine, toy, and so on. This is a great way for helping someone find the right size of Teacup Yorkshire Terrier they are seeking. The only problem with this practice is that there is not a standard definition for any of these terms. One Teacup Yorkshire Terrier breeder may define a mini yorkie as any yorkie under 5 lbs. and another breeder might consider a teacup yorkshire terrier as any yorkie under 4 lbs. As a person who is looking to buy a Teacup Yorkshire Terrier, if you buy a teacup yorkie puppy and are expecting a pup that will only grow to be 2 to 3 lbs. and you were not aware that the breeder’s definition of teacup yorkshire terrier is anything under 6 lbs. you will probably think that the breeder gave you false information about the dog. So make sure before you purchase a Teacup Yorkshire Terrier that they are the specific size you are looking for.

Training Equipment

You do not want to get stuck on just one type of training equipment for your Teacup Yorkshire Terrier. You want to make sure you use whatever you will need to get the results you are after. Most of the time you will see optimal results and more ease of use just using a simple slip collar or choke chain with the Teacup Yorkshire Terrier (or any of the other toy breeds) because it is such a small dog you are training In most cases, it’s just plain easier to use a slip collar/choke chain with the Teacup Yorkshire Terrier breeds because it is easy to make the corrections you want if you do the motivation corrections the correct way and the correct way being the tug and release. It is also difficult to find these mini and micro pinch collars for your Teacup Yorkshire Terrier. If you are trying to use the small one then you only have one or two prongs in the whole collar. This does not give you enough to correct behavior. So it would behoove you to use a a pinch collar but only if you get the micro-sized one. These micro-sized collars for your Teacup Yorkshire Terriers are hard to locate but if you search the web or maybe call your local pet store you should be able to find one. If you try and still cant find a micro-sized one for your Teacup Yorkshire Terrier you can use a properly sized slip/choke chain.

Food

I love my Teacup Yorkshire Terrier, as well as Im sure you do also and we want to make sure that we provide them with everything they need to live the absolute best life. One of those things we provide our Teacup Yorkshire Terrier pets with but that can be confusing because of so many variations available on the market is their food. Its very hard to identify what foods are best for our Teacup Yorkshire Terrier. It is very difficult to feel confident when so many brands offer enticing product benefits. The best thing that we can do is to conduct a simple dog food comparison to determine which foods best fit our dog’s requirements and our personal schedule. This is the best technique because some foods offer much greater convenience than the more natural, less processed types of food which may require freezing, thawing, cooking and preparation. Putting convenience aside you want to focus on your Teacup Yorkshire Terrier age and any special requirements that he or she may have. You should only focus on those specifics and not the brand or style of dog food. If you have an older dog you need a more protein balanced food with protein, fat, and fiber. You can find senior dog foods that the commercial dog food companies have put in your local supermarket. So always pick your Teacup Yorkshire Terriers (or whatever size or breed you have) food based on age and specific need.
