I know most of you, like me would try to tell someone contemplating purchasing a teacup that they were about to be fleeced. But, what if someone proudly showed you their brand new Teacup puppy, expecting ohs and ahs. What would you do?

This has happened to me twice in the past year. Once at petsmart. a lady behind me asked about my 8 month pom. I saw that she was holding a black pom pup a little larger than my 5 lb 8 month old. She then proceeded to tell me that mine was a regular (of course it is) and hers was "4 months old and a special teacup, and I won’t tell you how much I paid, but it was a lot"
All I could say was "it is very cute". I don’t think she would listen anyway. But I did have to bite my tongue
The other time was a coworker told me that they had just bought a teacup chihuahua. 3 months old and 4 lbs. I didn’t have the heart to tell them otherwise. I did however, give them advice on how to choose a good breeder the next time. (they had health problems with the puppy the first couple of weeks they owned it. Anemia from fleas)

What would you do?
