Rare and Exotic Teacups

(healthy or fragile)

These are just an example of the beautiful rare and exotic elusive teacups we have available for you. The

multi-color litter to the left will only cost you $30,000. However, if one becomes chipped, because you know they are very delicate and fragile, you will get a discount to $29,995. The exotic Lilac teacup to the right is a real bargain to our repeat customers. If you buy today you can have this adorable little cup with the easty/westy eyes (eyes looking outward as opposed to being crossed-eye showing large amounts of white and better known as hydrocephalus) and a number of soft spots or an overly extended molera for $5,000. However, the price may go up or down, depending on my mood, what bill I have to pay, or your gullibility.

The above "tongue-in-cheek" advertisement is intended to be a parody to the various ads placed online and in newspapers by breeders who advertise "teacup" Chihuahuas, Poodles, Maltese, Yorkie Terriers, and other toy breed dogs. Unfortunately, not all Consumers know that the use of the words "teacup," "micro," "ultra-tiny," "tiny teacup," "tiny toy," "pocket-size," etc., is just a marketing tactic by breeders to entice the Consumer to purchase a very small dog for a very large amount of money. While there will be times you will be able to purchase a pup who will remain in the 2-3 lb. range, they are nonetheless, still a toy breed dog. In addition, contrary to what the breeder claims, the size of the dog cannot be guaranteed and, those who do offer a guarantee are counting on your being an out-of-state buyer, a person who falls in love with the dog and doesn't want to return it, or the breeder goes into hiding so as not to have to live up to their guarantee. A good hint of this type of breeder is one who stresses that they ship and give very little if any encouragement for the Consumer to visit their kennels to see the puppies' interaction in their natural environment: playing with their siblings and being nurtured by the momma dog.

This website is intended to provide to you, the Consumer, information enough that when you do purchase that new family member, you are as prepared as much as possible to make that decision based on best practices for avoiding a scam.

Enjoy this moment of fantasy, deception, and a jolly good laugh!
