I did not create the "labels" Imperial or "Teacup."我没有创造“标签”帝国或“茶杯” 。 These words were already set in stone before I ever came on board.这些话已经确定在石头之前，我都来到船上。 I picked up the terms only because potential customers were asking me for "Imperial Size" or "Teacup Size."我拿起的条款不仅是因为潜在客户是问我的“帝国大小”或“茶杯大小。 ” I RARELY get a request for a "Standard" size shih tzu as defined by the American Kennel Club.我很少收到要求“标准”大小子石所界定的美国犬业俱乐部。 Since these words of Imperial Shih Tzu and Teacup Shih Tzu were so common to describe a particular size of shih tzu and I was seeing these are the terms people place in search engines boxes looking for the size THEY WANT in a shih tzu, I began using the terms as well mainly to be able to communicate with potential customers in their own language.由于这些话帝国慈济施施和茶杯慈济是如此共同来描述一个特定大小的石姿，我看到这些人的条件进行搜索引擎寻找箱子的大小要在石姿，我开始使用的条款，以及主要是能够沟通的潜在客户在他们自己的语言。

The smaller size shih tzu are NOT smaller just because they are UNHEALTHY.规模较小的石庄子是不小的仅仅是因为他们是不健康的。 This is a downright myth or lie being spread by those who are in favor of only one size shih tzu, which they say, is the only size shih tzu that should be on the market.这是一个彻头彻尾的神话或散布谎言的人谁主张只有一个大小子石，他们说，是唯一的大小石姿，应当在市场上。 And the ill-will I have heard from this group of people against these little guys is almost unreal, as if these smaller size shih tzus should not have the same rights as the "standard" size, maybe not even the "right to live" if this side of the poll had its ultimate way about things.和虐待，我会听到这一群人对这些小家伙几乎是不现实的，因为如果这些小尺寸石tzus不应有相同的权利“标准”尺寸，也许甚至不是“生活的权利”如果这方面的民意调查有其终极的途径有关的事情。 And......as if people who have these little guys for sale command a higher price, that this is proof the breeder is doing something outrageously WRONG.和......犹如人谁拥有这些小家伙的指挥出售价格较高，这是证明的种鸡是做一些悍然是错误的。 Well........like I said.......RARELY does anyone ask me for a "standard" size shih tzu.嗯........像我说.......很少有人问我一个“标准”大小石姿。 There is a huge market of individuals and families who prefer these smaller sizes including me.有一个巨大的市场对个人和家庭谁喜欢这些小规模的包括我在内。 I like all the sizes, but the smaller ones are my favorite.我喜欢所有的大小，但较小的是我最喜欢的。 They are like little tiny treasures, almost always sweeter than the bigger guys.他们就像微小的珍品很少，几乎总是甜蜜比更大的家伙。 To me, they are like a rare exquisite jewel in the midst of all kinds of other jewels.在我看来，他们就像是一种罕见的精美宝石处于其他各种宝石。 They do require more work on the part of the breeder.他们需要更多的工作的一部分，种鸡。 Often, to keep them going at first because they are so small they have to be hand-fed and fed extra supplements like Nutri-cal daily.通常，他们随时会在第一，因为他们这么小就必须一方面喂养和喂养一样额外补充营养钙每日。 For these reasons of being that tiny treasured, exquisite jewel, rare and unique from all the rest, and because of the all extra labor involved in raising them, they command a higher price.由于这些原因被认为微小的珍贵，精美的宝石，稀有和独特的从所有休息，因为所有额外的劳动参与提高，他们命令更高的价格。

And.......I still say, from all I have read.......the smaller size shih tzu.......most likely the under 6 pounds, the 7 and 8 pounders were the very first shih tzu to ever be brought into this world by the Chinese Emporess Dowager in the Imperial Palace of China.和.......我仍然说，从所有我已阅读.......规模较小的石姿.......最有可能的不足6磅， 7日和8 pounders的第一石姿，以以往任何时候都带进这个世界的中国Emporess贵妇在故宫的中国。 The bigger sizes were rejected by these early day breedings conducted in the Palace.较大规模的拒绝了这些早期breedings一天进行的故宫。 They were often sold to the peasants in the streets.他们经常出售给农民在街道上。 The smaller ones were kept under careful guard, were the ones actually very much pampered that slept on satin pillows in the palace, that were owned by the elite and wealthy of that period of time, were given as gifts to the diplomats that visited the Imperial Palace as the most ultimate gift of all to ever receive from the Princess.较小的是不断进行认真的后卫，是那些实际上非常疼爱的缎子睡在枕头的宫殿，是所拥有的精英和富裕的一段时间，有作为礼品的外交官参观了帝国故宫作为最极限的礼物，以以往任何时候都得到公主。 They were the shih tzu that was highly reverened and cherished.他们是石庄子这是高度reverened和珍惜。 These little under the table dogs were sometimes so small the Chinese could carry them in their sleeves.这些小桌子底下，有时狗这么小的中国能够履行他们的袖子。 Try getting a 9 to 16 lb. dog in your sleeve?尝试获得9至16磅的狗在您的袖子？ Won't work no matter how big that sleeve is.不会的工作无论多么大，套筒。 We owe all our bloodlines to these early breeders.我们应该感谢我们所有的血统，以这些早期培育。 The Princess was mean and ruthless and was known to have little regard for anyone else but her shih tzu.公主是指和残酷，并已知有不顾别人，但她师子。 She was burned out several times and eventually I suppose when all the chips were down, she felt beaten, and was found to have committed suicide with all her little shih tzu around her.她被烧坏了几次，最终我猜想当所有的芯片下降了，她觉得殴打，被发现自杀与所有她的小师子身边。 So the legends of the shih tzu are steeped in mysterious myths and stories that it is no wonder there is still so much controversy about them and......it is about these little guys the most it seems.所以传说中的石庄子是沉浸在神秘的神话和故事，这是毫不奇怪仍然有这么多争议，并......这是对这些小家伙最好像。 They seem to be the most mysterious of all - another reason why they command a higher price tag.他们似乎是最神秘的所有-的另一个原因，他们命令更高的价格标签。 They are EXQUISITE LITTLE CREATURES.他们是精品小动物。

They actually do belong recognized in a class all their own.他们确实承认属于一类都属于自己。 I hope to see The American Kennel Club someday do just that.我希望看到美国养犬俱乐部有朝一日做到这一点。 New breeds are being created everyday.新品种正在建立日常。 I don't know why this group of people against the little guys try to make such a fuss over them not being appropriate to be anything but a PET and they imply any breeder having them are doing something outrageously wrong to the breed.我不知道为什么这一群人对小家伙尝试作出这样的事对他们没有得到适当的东西，但PET和它们意味着任何种鸡让他们这样做是错误的东西肆无忌惮的滋生。 I wonder do people carry on the same about Teacup Poodles?我不知道这样做的人进行相同的茶杯贵宾犬？ These little under 6 pounders would be so cute in the showring and in fact, I have a picture of one who was 6 pounds who won a championship (one of my shih tzu books).这些小小的不足6 pounders会如此可爱的showring ，事实上，我有一个图片一个谁是6磅谁赢得了冠军（我的一个石字书） 。 They belong in a class all their own.它们属于一类都属于自己。 Name them Imperials.他们Imperials名称。 Name them Teacups.他们茶杯名称。 Do away with the Teacup name.取消茶杯名称。 Don't matter to me on that.不要此事向我。

At first very few people got hold of these little guys.在第一极少数人掌握这些小家伙。 Why?为什么？ Because they were one of a kind - like a very precious jewel in the midst of all kinds of other jewels.因为他们中的一个实物-像一个非常珍贵宝石中其他各种宝石。

I also think that because so many other people were able to get hold of the bigger sizes in those days is where these bigger sizes now came from.我还认为，因为很多其他人能够掌握更大的规模在那些日子里是这些较大规模现在从何而来。 They went out all over to other countries - but not the tiny treasures of the Imperial Palace.他们去了所有其他国家-而不是小国宝的故宫。 They were the secret of that period of time.他们是秘密的一段时间。 They are still fairly rare, fairly scarce.他们仍然相当少见，相当稀少。 Anything that can be produced in vast numbers is always "cheaper."任何可以产生大量始终是“便宜。 ” I remember when VCR's and Microwaves first came out, they were so expensive I thought I could never own one.我记得当录象机和微波头出来后，他们是如此昂贵我想我可以永远拥有一个。 But then......they started being manufactured by the millions, which brought the prices down, and many other people could afford them.但后来......他们开始生产的数以百万计，这使价格下跌，以及许多其他人买不起。

Right now, these little guys are still fairly scarce, which makes their value go up also.现在，这些小家伙仍然相当匮乏，这使得它们的价值也上升。 And they are many times just as healthy as the bigger guys.他们多次就像健康的大家伙。

I wonder don't these people who are against the little guys know that even humans come in all sizes and shapes......what if suddenly there was some kind of a stamp put on humans and if every person was not the weight of 170 pounds and 6 foot tall, they were deemed INAPPROPRIATE to be alive.......There are big people and little people and I am so grateful because I am one of the little people standing about 5 feet 2 inches tall.我想没有这些人谁是对小家伙知道，即使是人类在所有大小和形状......如果突然有某种邮票把对人类和每个人，如果不重量170磅，身高6英尺，它们被认为是不合适的还活着.......有大的人很少人民和我很感激，因为我一个人站在小约5英尺2英寸高。 My weight has gone up through the years, so I might qualify as a person based on weight.......我的体重已经通过几年来，所以我可能有资格作为一个人的重量.......

I cherish the smaller sizes.我珍惜较小的尺寸。 All of mine have been extra joy to have around!!!!所有煤矿已额外的喜悦大约有！ ！ I don't in-breed them or have some kind of special formula to create them.我没有在品种，或有某种特殊的公式来创建它们。 Size is created by genes of the bloodlines.大小是由基因的血统。 And yes, you could call the smallest in the crew a runt just the same.是的，你可以要求最小的船员一侏儒一样。 Personally though, I like the word "teacup" better.个人虽然，我喜欢用“茶杯”更好。 I think it more closely describes them and is a cuter term.我认为，更加紧密地介绍了他们是一个cuter任期。 If I were breeding Police Dogs, or Alaskan Working Dogs, I would call the smallest one in the crew, the runt.如果我是警犬繁育，或阿拉斯加的工作犬，我要呼吁最小的一个船员的侏儒。 But I choose to call the smallest shih tzu - teacups and imperials.但我选择要求最小的石庄子-茶杯和i mperials。 In my mind, that simply means a certain size.在我看来，这只是意味着一定规模。 Rather than saying, I want a dog 6 pounds or under.与其说，我想狗6磅或根据。 A person can say I want a Teacup, and I know the size they are asking me for.一个人可以说我要一个茶杯，我知道他们的大小是问我的。
