I live in missouri, and have been trying to find somewhere that I can get free teacup puppies. Does anybody know of a place, or maybe a website that has free teacup yorkies? all help is greatly appreciated. thanks!
You do know that there is no such thing as a teacup yorkie, or any other breed, right? 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. I cannot imagine anyone wanting anything smaller than that! Their bones are VERY fragile and can be broken by jumping off of a coach, falling off of a bed, being stepped on or worse.
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.
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!

Good luck. You are not going to find free yorkie puppies anywhere. The only place that you even have a chance at is at a shelter, but they have expensive re-homing fees now too.

LMAO!
If you’re too cheap to pay the thousand dollar price tag that BYBs slap on those sad excuses for dogs, then you’re definitely not going to be able to afford the thousands of dollars in vet bills that sickly runt is going to cost you.

In the first place what in the world is a teacup yorkie? You want a dog smaller than 4 lbs? Any ‘teacup’ versions of breeds are a bad idea. They usually have many health problems because of bad breeding practices used to make a breed smaller than normal.
Here is an excerpt from the Yorkshire Terrier Club of America’s website:
Special circumstances often come with extra tiny dogs. They are extremely susceptible to both hereditary and non-hereditary health problems, including birth defects that may go undetected for a long time. Other common problems may include, but are not limited to, diarrhea, vomiting, along with extra and expensive tests prior to routine teeth cleanings and surgeries.
Small ones are more likely to have poor reactions to anesthesia and die from it. Tiny dogs are more easily injured by falls, being stepped on and being attacked by other dogs. These health problems nearly always result in large veterinary bills.
.
Please take this into consideration and make purchasing a healthy pet your top priority, not size. The “novelty” is certainly not worth the pain, heartbreak, or extra expense. Remember, all Yorkies are comparatively small. The most important thing is finding a healthy puppy that will grow into a healthy adult, especially since you looking at an 11 to 15 year commitment with your Yorkie.

The back yard breeders and puppy mills that breed and sell “teacup” Yorkies are in business to make money, lots of money, not to give then away.

Puhleeeeeeeeze……get serious. Beside the fact there is no such thing as a “teacup”, no one is going to just hand you an extremely expensive dog for NOTHING! Get a job, save your money and pay for it like everyone else.
