My Teacup Shepherd

As many of you have probably experienced, when you take your Cardigan Welsh Corgis out in public, you will often be asked what kind of dogs they are. Well, to be more accurate, you are usually asked what kind of mix or mutt they are. (Although, I have to say, more and more people do seem to be able to identify Cardigans for who they are.) Of course, this brings out the prankster in me. In this day and age of designer dogs, it can be pretty easy to pull the wool (or would that be dog hair) over someone's eyes......

Let me provide an example.......

An all-black German Shepherd Dog




My Teacup Shepherd
You would be surprised how many people will ask where they can get one! Oops! 

While writing this post I googled "Teacup Shepherd". And, lo and behold, there really is such a creature! It's the tiniest version of an Australian Shepherd. Under 10 inches and weighing between 4 and 9 pounds....so I guess Jimmy doesn't qualify!

  1. oh no! I am one of those people who always asks other folks what kind of dog they have. They could tell me a blah-blah-blah and I would believe them! :)

  2. I've had people ask if Lacey was a baby rotti. LOL. I'm not sure what they think her ears are doing. I'll have to try the Teacup Shepherd answer!
