Pray that you have a standard toy-sized Pomeranian and NOT a so-called "teacup"!!
"Teacup" is NOT a recognized size for ANY toy sized dog. "Teacup" toy dogs are the result of irresponsible back-yard breeding to create smaller and smaller toy dogs. This results in tiny and very SICKLY dogs that shiver all the time, have terrible dental problems, many other health problems, and are difficult to train and nearly impossible to housebreak. "Teacup" dogs cannot be shown because they are WAY out of standard for their breeds. Most of the females cannot be bred because they often die while trying to deliver their puppies.

Is a toy dog or a mini dog smaller?
Generally, teacup dogs are smaller varieties of toy dogs. The smaller varieties of some toy breeds are called "teacup", such as "teacup Chihuahuas", "teacup Poodles", etc. However, teacup dogs are actually undersized toy dogs. This name is only a marketing technique used to increase dog sells by creating the impression that the "teacup" dogs are cuter and more valuable than toy dogs. Usually, teacup dogs have many health problems and a shorter life span due to their small size. Their bones are also very fragile and can be damaged easily. Also, teacup dogs are not approved by reputable kennel clubs including the Kennel Club (KC), the American Kennel Club (AKC) and the Continental Kennel Club (CKC). Teacups are not considered as a separate breed in any way or form.

Is there a difference between a teacup pomeranian and an average pomeranian?
A toy poodle is a recognised breed of poodle. It is the smallest breed of poodle that is recognised by the BKC and AKC. The teacup poodle is not recognised by the governing BKC or AKC associations. It is a poodle but it is usually a much smaller than normal sized poodle and they breed these poodles together which result in a even smaller poodle which is called a teacup poodle. The poodles that are usually bred together are toy poodles which are smaller than the set size for that particular size.They are mostly the same except that Toy Poodles are larger than Teacup Poodles.
What is the difference between a toy and teacup Maltese?
There is no such dog breed as a maltipoo. Nor is there any size of dog called a "teacup", the smallest size for dogs is toy. "Teacup", "pocket", etc., are names that some breeders started calling their undersized runts to con idiots into buying them at an inflated price. So the proper wording for you question is:~Is a toy poodle and Maltese mixed breed dog larger or smaller than a toy poodle and Maltese mix that is the runt of the litter?~The answer to your question would be that generally a normal sized dog is larger than an undersized dog...but since you are asking which mutt would be larger, there is no guarantee how either dog will turn out.
