I am looking for the smallest type of poodle. I was told it is called TeaCup Poodle. Do you have any idea where I can locate one. My location is Syracuse, New York. Thank You, Jan

Hi Jan, I absolutely implore you and beg you to reconsider a "teacup" poodle. Such puppies are almost a sure bet for genetic problems. The money you spend on a "teacup" will be small in comparison to the vet bills and worry/stress of having an ill pet. Some so called "breeders" will advertise a "teacup poodle" for extra money. Don't fall into that trap. THere are plenty of reputable breeders of toy poodles (9 1/2" at the withers) who would be a great companion. When you buy from a reputable breeder you can be assured that your puppy was socialized, cared for, and has the best genetics you could find. Of course, no dog is perfect, but a caring breeder will stand by their puppy and will be there for you if you should need help or support. Top breeders take great pride and have much compassion to produce puppies that will enhance the poodle breed. Please visit Versitility in Poodles and learn about the poodle. Then find the links to a breeder in your area. I would encourage you to join PSG and join in our poodle discussions. Good luck.

Hi. I just read your message. I have a breeder who has teacups, male & female black and cream, several wonderful puppies. Some ready for Christmas, some end of January. I am in Ohio. She will not ship but I can help you get the dog. Email me if interested.
