Well, ***you found her*** place a free add in the newspaper and call the local radio station.. these things are free.. Get her back to her owners.. they are probably heart sick.. plus she probably belongs to someone close to where ***you found her***.
WOW... she could also be a Maltese or a Bichon.
Good Luck

There is no such thing as a "teacup" variety of any breed - whether it be a Poodle, Maltese, Pomeranian, etc. Please check out the official breed standards at www.akc.org or check out the official parent club websites for those breeds. By calling anything "teacup" it is just a scam by these so called "breeders" to separate the public from their hard earned dollars.
But, I digress.....Poodles come in three varieties - toy, miniature and standard. I would say if this is a Poodle you have found, it is a very small toy puppy.

there's no such ingredient as a "teacup" poodle. Thats a rip-off term used to sell sickly runts for a severe fee ticket. TOYS are the smallest.. something under 10 inches is a TOY poodle existence expectancy relies upon on extra advantageous than how tall the canine is.. it comes right down to genetics and care. detect a breeder who does appropriate wellness finding out and study on the pedigrees... any length of poodle could have the flair to stay everywhere from 12-17+ years, it only relies upon on genetics and care. there's no distinction between loyalty, companionship and intelligence. standards, minis and toys all make reliable pets, and are fantastically trainable.

THERE ARE NO SUCH THINGS AS TEACUP POODLES!
There are no breeds that have a teacup as a size! None! There are toy, miniature, and standard Poodles. Period. An undersized toy might be referred to as a "teacup" but in fact that size does not exist! If you have no idea how old she is, take her to the vet and have them check her development. They can help you with age. Plus if you found her, how can you be sure she is healthy! A vet trip is in order. But remember: at best she can be a toy, miniature, or standard but not a teacup. They do not exist!

Well, there is really no such thing as a teacup poodle. People breed the runts of their Toy Poodle litters and pass them off as "tea cup" Because these are a technical classification, I don't think there is a standard for this.

if it can fit in a teacup (as a puppy), then it is, hence the name.
take that pup to a vet and start posting the "found animal" signs. if no one claims the dog, you can keep it.

Sounds like you are getting pretty attached. Take her to the vet, they can tell you approximately how old she is, and you can also get her shots and make arrangements to have her spayed since you obviously are falling for her! Congratulations!

Well are you going to keep it??
lol
I think it is but you never know becuase it can be still a baby..
If it doesnt have a collor or something, then keep it but if you are, go to the vet and ask them, then you will figure out...
