How Do The Dog Breeders Make A Chihuahua Grow Very Tiny, Teacup?

There isn't really any such thing as teacup in any breed and it is advisable to stay away from anyone using the term. Indicates they either have poor ethics (either by using the term when they know it doesn't exist, using the term to mislead other's, etc.) or they don't really have enough knowledge to be breeding because they do believe the term exists and both have an effect on a breeding program, the pups produced, and the people that love them. It is often a health problem contributing to such a tiny dog like a liver shunt. And those tiny dogs need additional care, more health issues, more care, and they have much shorter life spans even if reasonably healthy. In general someone breeding for super tiny dogs is someone to be wary of for many, many reason's. Do very tiny dogs occur, yes, but you don't irresponsibly match up your dogs to produce them for sales purposes. Breeding is supposed to be for those working hard to improve on something, and ultimate goal which will take several generations to get there and you need to know a lot to do it. When you are creating lives it should be taken as seriously as it deserves. Here's the link to the breed club on Chihuahuas and a statement they have made about that word (and the similar others) and a link to a video of a pup who was just way too small and mentions some of the contributing factors.. Good luck to you.

Dog breeders are actually breeding from  parents that are already deformed because they too were bred from their parents who were already deformed and so on backwards. Chihuahua,s  along with ALL pedigree dogs are man made  and are genetically modified through selective breeding ,otherwise known as artificial selection. . Genetic modification has been happening for thousands of years by man selecting who breeds with who, this type of genetic selection ,under the control of man keeps all pedigree dogs uniform (or clonelike ). This is how pedigree breeds are made .  When a breeder wants to, say try to shorten the breeds legs even more he will concentrate on breeding from those who have the shortest legs and then breed from those who are produced with the shortest legs ( of whatever factor is desired).All  Pedigree dogs are totally unnatural. All dogs come from the grey wolf so just take a look at the  abnormal shapes that man has bred into breeds such as the Great Dane and the chihuahua, none resemble the wolf. They look different species altogether, yet they are dogs. They have been bred from mutations and the mutated gene then is allowed to spread into the breed by incest, breeding close relatives. Meanwhile all breeds suffer breed specific diseases, which causes them miserable lives. Think of all the abnormal flat faced breeds and their struggle to breathe. All their internal anatomy inside the face/mouth is altered, it is not just how they look. I do hope you can understand some of this. Dogs have the widest genepool of any other species and this has enabled such massive alterations in size and shape etc.
