A newborn puppy born with no eyes was dumped at a shelter by her breeder after they deliberately bred two runts to try and create the smallest 'teacup' dog possible. Teacup, who's a cross between a miniature schnauzer and wheaten terrier, was not only born blind, but also with her bladder attached to her uterus. ‘Teacup doesn’t have any pain and doesn’t know that she is disabled as she has never known life with vision.' Butler and her family are currently fostering Teacup as the shelter looks to find her a permanent home. Meanwhile, rescue shelter volunteers like Butler are warning potential dog adopters about such 'toy' dogs, which often have serious health issues.
