Tiny Dog barks Like a Duck

Pipsqueak is a special needs Yorkie who weighs only 1.8 pounds! She has no teeth and some physical abnormalities in addition to being so tiny. But she's outlived all estimates, and is the queen of her home. She's also turned her humans in to special needs foster parents, with six little dogs currently in the house. Pipsqueak is adorable, but her story highlights the problem with puppy mills. Breeding the smallest dogs with the smallest dogs only compounds their genetic problems. When people only focus on a dog's looks, someone will go to nefarious lengths to fill those desires. If you're considering adopting a dog, why not go to your local shelter and provide a home for a dog who really needs one, instead of fueling the market for designer pups?
