Go to the store and get the most recent edition of Dog Fancy Mag. A Yorkshire Terrier is on the front cover. It will tell you everything you need to know and certainly explain to you why there is no such thing as a 'teacup' dog.

there's no such thing as a "teacup" Yorkie.. that's a scam label used by irresponsible breeders to sell a sickly runt for a high price tag.. they are still just a Yorkshire Terrier
They need about 30-60 mins of exercize a day
Small dogs can be somewhat difficult to train, expecially terriers
They need daily grooming to prevent matting
Small dogs often are good alert dogs and will bark
Love and care is the same as any other dog.

Please understand that there is no such thing as a Teacup Yorkie.
Yorkshire Terriers come in ONE size; they are a toy breed of dog.
Anyone advertising 'teacup, 'miniature', or 'babydoll face' Yorkies is a backyard breeder or puppymill-and you don't want to support these places.

You never want to buy online, from pet stores, or from newspaper ads as this is where puppymills and backyard breeders advertise.
If you live in the United States, you can check http://www.petfinder.com/ it is an adoption based website where you can find Yorkshire Terriers (and other breeds, and their mixes) needing homes in your area.

Yorkies can be active. The one's I've met are very spoiled, so I guess trainability is up to the owner.
Yorkies are dogs that need serious grooming. They're long hair dogs and can become matted/tangled.

i had a teacup with a yorkie on once but it diddnt last very long as china is fragile………and so are runty dogs, so get a YORKSHIRE TERRIER true to type and enjoy his good health and the more years you will get with him

Yorkie are easy to train, regular grooming requirements, good barkers and very loving.
Tea Cup Yorkies don't need training, grooming, they don't bark and show no love.
They just require a little dusting, and to be placed high enough on a cupboard to prevent breaking
