Newborn puppy born with no eyes is dumped by breeder who deliberately crossed two runts to try and create the smallest 'teacup' dog possible A newborn puppy named Teacup, who's a cross between a miniature schnauzer and wheaten terrier, was born without eyes after being bred as small as possible She was dumped by her breeder at the Big Fluffy Dog Rescue in Nashville at just a month old, and couldn't even bottle feed due to her lack of suckle response The tiny pup weighed just one pound for the first four weeks of her life, struggling to stay warm due to her diminutive size.   She isn’t expected to weigh any more than eight pounds once she grows into an adult, even though her mother was nine pounds and her father 11 pounds Volunteers at the Big Fluffy Dog Rescue are warning potential dog adopters about such 'toy' dogs, which often have serious health issues ‘Sadly money is all that matters to many of these breeders, not the health, temperament and... integrity of the bloodline’ the adoption coordinator said

A newborn puppy born with no eyes was dumped at a shelter by her breeder after they deliberately bred two runts to try and create the smallest 'teacup' dog possible. 

Teacup, who's a cross between a miniature schnauzer and wheaten terrier, was not only born blind, but also with her bladder attached to her uterus.

The tiny pup weighed only 1lb for the first four weeks of her life, struggling to stay warm due to her diminutive size.  

‘I couldn’t believe how tiny she was and I was so eager to get some food in her,' said the rescue home's adoption and foster coordinator, Nicole Butler.

‘Teacup doesn’t have any pain and doesn’t know that she is disabled as she has never known life with vision.'
