"Many of the less than reputable breeders of undersized Shih Tzu claim that their Shih Tzu possess the “imperial” gene. There is no proof that such a gene exists. Size reduction occurs by breeding the smallest dog in a litter to another small dog of another litter, and so on and so forth. This not only creates abnormally small Shih Tzu, but also puppies that may have health problems. This is not indicative of an “imperial gene,” but rather of poor breeding practices.

A responsible breeder does not advertise an occasional “runt” as an “imperial” or “tiny teacup” Shih Tzu. Rather, it is sold as a pet, solely as a companion dog that is not to be used for breeding. Responsible breeders strive to breed healthy dogs that conform to the breed standard. The ideal Shih Tzu is a sturdy, active, healthy dog with good substance for its size. Those desiring a very tiny pet should choose another breed rather than destroying the very characteristics that make the Shih Tzu such an ideal companion."

Usually its just a marketing strategy kay ang runt usually is very small size since that pup has genetic problems or was the least attended pup among the litter or in other words, wala kaayo matagad since na over power cya by his littermate during feeding, so less nutrition, slower growth or worst stunt growth, thats where the term teacup is widely misused.

yup agree. this is what some sellers do in order to 'justify' a certain aspect of a dog that does not conform to the breed standard. pariha ra btaw ni sa mga poodle nga tawagun nila ug 'doll face' when in fact a poodle's snout is not supposed to be that short. they just call them 'doll faced' to make it sound nice and more appealing........

they are just runts really.
