Help with picking a tea cup puppies?
Ok i need a list of all tea cup dogs … and which its the best for a house with one 1 year on and one 2 year on and a 13 year old thanks =]
There aren't any.
There is no such thing as a tea cup anything.
Read this:http://www.barkrescue.net/teacup.htm
This is the sad truth
There are perfectly sound and well bred dogs in the Toy category: http://www.akc.org/breeds/toy_group.cfm
It is a very short list
There are none just poorly bred runts bought by suckers
There is no such thing as a teacup anything unless of course it is an actual teacup you drink out of.
'Tea cups' are nothing more than glorified runts that will have a multitude of health issues and stick you with thousands of dollars in vet bills. The dog itself won't live for more than a few years even with all the vet care.
Save both yourself and any future dog you may own a lot of misery and do your research.
teacup is a term a BYB or mill puts on a runt to sell it for higher. So basically you want a runt. Well a good portion of runts grow up to be full sized dogs. The only way you know you have a dwarfed dog is to adopt it as an adult.
Don't buy a dog or puppy labeled teacup. Often it is a runt to runt breeding which results in very serious chronic illnesses and increased chance of organ failure, bone problems (usually being too weak), teeth crowding (which all small dogs are prone to but a poorly bred dog is more likely to get it), and much more.
In general small dogs do not do well with small children…especially if the children were not brought up with animals. Small dogs tend to snap more and are more fragile than larger dogs.
A good place to go is your local shelter. They test dogs to see if they are good around children.

You should be OK with any of these, but you better be careful with the 1 and 2 year olds. They can break if left unattended.
There is no real thing as a Teacup any breed of dog. They are runts bred down from runts to be smaller and smaller.
I would not suggest ANY tiny breed for a house with toddlers and babies, or any children under the age of at least 10. The children don't understand enough to not hurt the dog and the smaller dogs are fragile.
there is none. they are runt X runt breedings that result in VERY unhealthy puppies. many do not make it past their 3rd birthday. they where not meant to be that small for a reason!
A teacup puppy is simple an inbred runt, that cost $$$$ to buy, and will be lucky to live 12month. They have a incrediable short lifespan. NO reputable or Responsble breeder BREEDS teacups.
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.
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 plethora 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 couch, 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’re 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!
Small breeds are really too small and fragile to be a 1year old pet. They can easily be killed if there picked up and clumsly dropped, a small dog also doesn't like the loudness or rowdiness of young children, there also MUCH more likely to be BITTEN by a small dog, then a larger breed such as retriever
TOY BREEDS, 4POUNDS+ and really aside from the Cavalier King Charles Spaniel none are APPROPATE for a 12month old kid
Affenpinscher Affenpinscher puppies are NOT suited to small children, no matter how well-meaning the child. Children cannot help being clumsy, and that a child meant well is little solace to an Affenpinscher puppy who has been accidentally stepped on, sat on, rolled on, squeezed, or dropped onto the patio. Even Affenpinscher adults may feel overwhelmed by the loud voices and quick movements that children can't help making — and stress and shyness (even defensive biting) may be the result.

English Toy Spaniel
If you have small children, I do not recommend English Toy Spaniel puppies, no matter how well-meaning the child. Small children cannot help being clumsy, and that a child meant well is little solace to an English Toy Spaniel puppy who has been accidentally stepped on, sat on, rolled on, squeezed, or dropped onto the patio.

Pomeranian
If you have small children, I do not recommend a Pomeranian. There are just too many Poms who won't tolerate any nonsense. And there are too many Poms who feel overwhelmed by the loud voices and quick movements that children can't help making — and stress and shyness (even defensive biting) may be the result.
Silky Terrier
I do NOT recommend terriers for small children. Many terriers will not tolerate any nonsense from little life forms whom they consider to be below themselves in importance. Many terriers are quick to react to teasing, and even to the normal clumsiness that comes with small children (accidental squeezing of their ears or pulling of whiskers or stepping on their paw). Many terriers are possessive of their food and toys and will defend these from all comers, including children.

There are no such thing as tea cup dogs or … puppies . Sorry , Sweets 
Breeders who say that they breed " teacup '' puppies are often irresponsible and greedy breeders who just care about the money 
Thus , the puppies are often sickly , neurotic , snappy , and have behavior issues . But then again , all " teacups " are dogs with TONS of health problems .
Have you heard of MICRO puppies ???? My god , please don't get those ! They are so small that they will die within a month of living with you because of some accident ! Plus , they're too small to enjoy and are sickly , too .
If you REALLY want a tiny dog , get a toy poodle , a chihuahua , a yorkie , or a maltese just to name a few . But please , don't get a teacup , yes they're extra small and satisfy you're motherly instinct but think about it , you can do the EXACT same thing with a REGULAR tiny dog as you could with a '' teacup'' .
I JUST HOPE YOU ARE READING AND LEARNING AND LISTENING AND TAKING NOTICE.
There is no best! Teacups do not exist! Runts would be put in a very dangerous situation with children that young! The dog would either be seriously injured or may even end up dead, because children that young are way too rough and don't know how to properly treat and handle a dog that tiny!
no such thing as teacup dogs of any kind. besides tiny dogs are not good to be around small children(preschoolers). The children will terrorize the dog and then the dog will bite back to defend themselves. Wait until the younger children are in school and then think about getting a small dog. Also puppies poop and pee on the floor. do you want your young children playing around in that?
any byb will sell you a teacup for a lot of money.
i have a teacup longhair pit bull. interested?
a small dog is fragile enough without the teacup. seeing a lot of vet bills in your future.
get the kids stuffed toys.
It's a really bad idea to get a dog for 2 really small children. Toddlers will pull a dog's fur, sit on it, squeeze it, and probably end up getting bitten by the dog. If it is a small dog, it can get seriously injured, or even killed by rough handling by a toddler. Wait until the kids are older, preferably around 8 or 9 years old. Besides, taking care of a puppy is full time job! Sounds like you have enough responsibility already.
very small dogs and very small children do not mix. wait until your children are older or go to your local shelter and let them help you choose a dog that suits your family. please educate yourself about "teacups".

Do You Get The Message?
yorkies i have one and they are the best and there is to such a things a tea cups! but those r a lot if u dont know some one so maybe a palmaranian
your children are too small for a teacup puppy. They are fragile. I have a teacup schnauzer and she is my baby. But her bones are fragile and she can be hurt easily. Go a little bigger as for a toy size, they are usually 10-14 pounds, and are a little stronger for small children. Good Luck De.
