No, the Toy Pomeranian is basically a term used by some puppy mills, breeders and owners when they are referring to an undersized Pomeranian.

Since the Toy Pomeranian does not meet the height requirements of the Pomeranian as stated in the breed standards of reputable kennel clubs, the puppy mills and breeders used this name so that purchasers will consider them as another breed instead of an undersized Pomeranian that fails to meet breed standards. The name "Toy Pomeranian" also creates the impression that this breed is cute, and small in a trendy way.

The Toy Pomeranian is also not recognized as a breed by reputable kennel clubs such as the American Kennel Club (AKC) and the Fédération Cynologique Internationale (FCI).

Most people who purchased a Toy Pomeranian are unaware that it is more prone to health problems than a Pomeranian. Their smaller skeletal structure makes them more fragile, hence they are more likely to suffer from accidents. Their life span is also generally shorter than that of a Pomeranian.

How tall does a west highland terrior crossed with a miniature poodle grow?

Hard to say because it IS a mixed-breed dog. Mixed breeds are a genetic crap shoot, there's just no reliable way to predict which breed's traits will show. But remember, a MINIATURE poodle is not as small as a toy poodle and as size goes a full-bred Westie is generally somewhere in the middle between a toy poodle and a miniature poodle. Also in both those purebreds the males are larger than the females.
