Can someone tell me if there is someone close to the St Lois area or south from there that raises teacup poodles? Does anyone know if there is some one in the southern part of il that raises them also. Needing to find a breeder. Thank you
sorry Gary, but there is really no such thing as a teacup poodle. They are actually called miniature poodles instead. If someone is offering teacup poodles for sale, I would definitely shy away from them!
well i understand what your saying but i am looking for a sixe that akc doesn't recognize as a teacup but that still is the size I am looking for. thanks anyway. I am looking for someone that also raised the tiny toy poodles too in the range of 5 lbs.
Okay Gary--Rosemarie raises the tiny toy poodles. She is a member on this board. You can private topic her if you like. I know she just had some puppies recently. You can find her over in open discussion and just write TO Rosemarie in the topic section and ask her if you don't know how the Private topic thing works. Hope she has one for you. Good luck and if I hear of anyone else, I'll let you know.

Teacup poodles are classified as toy poodles, not miniature poodles! Teacup is just a nickname for a very small toy poodle. Many breeders use the term teacup, and there is no harm done in doing so. I breed toy poodles and two of my girls consistently produce very tiny toy poodles, nicknamed teacup for their size.

I do not have any poodle pups available currently, and unfortunately most are spoken for before they arrive. I do not advertise over the internet and choose to sell to individuals whom I know and who live within a few hours from my home. Good luck in your search!

There is no such thing as a "teacup Poodle." Unknowledgeable breeders use this cutesy phrase as a "marketing term" for the smallest Poodles.

Poodles have been a fad breed for a very long time -- they are a dime a dozen. And since there is a ready market for them, they have been grossly exploited by unknowledgeable breeders who have flooded the gene pool with hyperactive, skittish, neurotic temperaments.
But the biggest problem with Poodles is health. Serious health problems are common in this breed, and to make matters worse, 99% of the Poodles offered in bulletin boards like this have not had any official screening done on their parents for hereditary health problems.

You do NOT want a teacup Poodle, no matter how cute it is. These individuals are great risks in the health department. Their bones are fragile, there is not enough room in their mouth for healthy teeth, and their internal organs are often very weak.
They tend to have lots of health problems and great difficulties regulating their blood sugar. Often they live a few years and then their owners wake up one morning and find them dead in their baskets from sudden heart or other organ failure.
To make matters worse, some breeders actually charge MORE for these high-risk puppies. There are breeders on the Internet taking advantage of naive buyers with prices of $1000, $1500, $2000 for "teacup" Poodles. Don't be taken!

This is a bunch of manure, and that is putting it as nicely as I can. Shame on you for your post! It's a good thing I know better as well as many other breeders of toy poodles! I won't even debate such a foolish post!
There is nothing to debate, Rosemarie. I stated the facts. You are a typical byb and you don't do testing. End of story. I pity the fools who buy your dogs!

Well troll hunter if YOU think it is so obvious then you are more than likely INCORRECT. Afterall wasn't it you that made all of those false accusations regarding me the other night. Yes it was you. GIVE IT A REST BECAUSE YOU ARE THE TROLL CREATING FRICTION EVERYWHERE YOU GO!

Standing ovation for a well stated ACCURATE post from someone who actually cares about both the individual dog and the breed itself. I owned a grooming shop for seven years-"teacup" poodles that were vigorous, healthy and mentally sound just didn't come along too often at all...what's been done to the poodle is just a darned shame.
