I'd like to introduce you all to Elmo, my newest addition here 
He's not a young pup, he's about 6 months old i think (he's by Logan) and we hung onto him as he looked very nice for the show ring but unfortunately he just stopped growing at 1.5lbs
Obviously, far too tiny to show (they have to be 4-6lbs) and when we offered him for sale we had the most ridiculous enquiries - people wanting him to breed from (why???? he is not to standard!!) and so many people wanting pics of him next to TV remotes or in a cup to see if he is a "teacup" - I HATE that term!! You just know they either want the dog to breed or as a fashion accessory. One person wanted him as a present for their 5 year old - very, very breakable dog is NOT a good childs pet 
so yeah, decided it was best to keep him than risk letting him go to one of the few sane people who contacted us, never know where he could end up...
Anyway, you all remember Evie?? Well, i thought, little Elmo would make a wonderful companion for her. He is small enough that he cant hurt her, she's bigger than him at 3lbs but very fine boned and fragile, and fiesty enough to put up with her grumpiness - he's lived with his crazy sister Birdie since a tiny baby!! He came home last weekend and he and Evie got on right away!! Dont tell her i told you this, but every morning i find them snuggled up together in their bed... awwww! it seems to have worked out well!! He's pretty much fully grown now, he certainly wont make much over 2lbs so i dont think i ever have to worry about him hurting her 
Anyway, here's the little man!! How cute???
