Teacup Yorkies are miniature Yorkshire Terriers. Not much is known about when people started breeding Yorkies smaller, but they are becoming more popular for people who love toy breeds.
Yorkshire Terriers were originally bred to hunt rats and rodents in northern England in the 1870s. Mostly used in industrial settings like coal mines and textile factories, they soon became a fashionable companion dog. They were introduced in America around 1880s and became very popular.

In fact they are now one of the most popular breeds in the US!
They are recognized by the American Kennel Club, in the Toy group. However the Teacup variety is not recognised.
