They can cost 400-500 dollars or more, but some can cost around 200-400 dollars. Teacup dogs are often sold at extortionate prices just for the "teacup" label, many times higher than "regular" sized puppies of the same breed.

The term "teacup" is a marketing tool referring to really small, and often unhealthy, dogs such as Chihuahuas, yorkies, shih-tzus and poodles. "Teacup" means they are so small meaning they can fit in a teacup. However, these dogs are often badly-bred in order to achieve the smallest size possible, with no concerns to their health or temperament. These dogs could cost a small fortune in vets bills.

Are teacup kittens real?

The term "teacup" is a marketing tool referring to really small, and often unhealthy cats and kittens. These are often sold at much higher prices than "regular" kittens. They are the result of unethical breeders breeding from unhealthy, deformed and undersized cats to produce what they call teacup cats. They are bred with no concerns to their health or temperament. No Cat Breed Association recognises "teacup" cats. There are such a thing as Dwarf cats, which is due to a genetic mutation. The Munchkin breed was created by a naturally occurring genetic mutation that results in cats with abnormally short legs. These are not the same as teacup cats.

How many puppies can a deer face chihuahua have?

A litter can range from 1 to 8 pups. Sometimes there can be as many as 12 but this is rare.It depends on what kind of chihuahua you have if you have a teacup or toy they have up to 4 puppies and if you have a regular chihuahua they have 5-6 puppies.They have 2 to 4,but I have seen 7 so just make sure you breed with another chihuahua and only 1 or 2 times together,the more they are together the more puppies there will be and you do not want that
