Teacup Puppies - What do you think?

Kind of a random topic. I was reading about teacup or ‘micro’ dogs; they’re those tiny dogs that actually look like 3-month-old puppies when they’re full-grown. It’s kind of a designer fad.
Because they are forced to be born prematurely, these dogs suffer a number of congenital and genetic defects. Many customers who buy them don’t see the dog live past a few months. I think it is completely unethical creating these dogs that suffer through a lot.. it’s like making a baby be born prematurely just because it would be ‘cuter’ or ‘smaller.’
