Teacup Yorkies look just like regular Yorkies but smaller. However I would caution that the Yorkshire Terrier Club of America states "All breeders may occasionally have an unusually small Yorkie (hopefully healthy),

though no responsible breeder breeds for this trait. Many breeders prefer a

general weight range of 4-7 pounds believing that size retains desired Toy

qualities while maintaining optimum health" - So if you find a breeder advertising Teacup, Micro Mini, Teeny, doll faced, or similar terminology you may want to question the reputability of the breeder. ANY reputable breeder will not seek to reproduce traits that are a health risk to, or would aid to the decline in standards of the breed.

The YTCA also goes on to state "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."

From a groomers perspective (my own perspective) Yorkies NEED regular grooming, and are already quite small and delicate. The smaller they are the more difficult it is to safely groom them. If your groomer cannot safely groom your dog it may result in injury and trauma to the dog - which will lead to a never ending cycle of the dog resisting grooming, more injury and more trauma. So do not choose a groomer lightheartedly - your dog will need grooming it's entire life.

Chihuahua Yorkie Mixes are referred to as "Chorkies". The mix of features from each breed results in a pretty cute little dog. The "concentration", or dominant breed traits depend on parentage (are both parents purebred, is one parent purebred and the other half and half, etc.). You can search "chorkie" under images in your preferred browser to see the wide variety the two breeds produce. Sometimes you can't even tell there's Chihuahua in there, save for a bit more wiry hair. Other times you can see the "bulbous" forehead of the Chihuahua.
