Question
I'm thinking about adopting a Teacup Maltese puppy and I don't have much info on them. Can anyone give me as much as they know. Info appreciated would be their height, weight, etc. Thanks!

Answer
Hello theres no such thing as teacups these are just abnormaly small examples of the breed and often genticly weak and die much earlier then a average sized spemcimen I reccomend getting a dog through a reptible registered breeder who doesnt use plots like teacups to sell there puppies. A healthy well bred maltese will reach 8/9 inche at the shoulder blade and weight 5-7 pounds
