| My Female is on heat Hi all, I am new here,... I have a little problem that I am seeking help. I have 3 yorkies, one girl who is in her heat, 2 boys. They are all not spayed or neutered, coz I intend to breed them. They all have been tested for any health problems and all 3 pass. My female came into heat about 5 days ago, my 1st male have been wanting to breed her even when shes not even in heat yet. Then, stoped when she started bleeding. She seems interested on my 2nd male and she started to hump him. Now, he don't wanna do anything to her. I always keep them separated until last night, she got out from the kitchen. All 3 of them had been together. My question is, can anything happen between them 3? Did any breeding took place? I know I am not supposed to breed until 7-10 days when shes on heat but, she got out. is there any test for her to know if shes been breed? |

| Welcome to YT Could you please list the health tests that have been done? They NEED to be separated, so someone can hold them during the tie, otherwise, they could get injured.

Wow, good to hear. Specifically though, has a bile acid test been done on all three of them and are their lines clear of LS? She has not been in heat long enough to get pregnant. Isn't 9-11 days best? Correct me if I'm wrong???

Letting nature take its course is usually not a good idea in Yorkies because their pregnancies are high risk/c-sections are required often.

| Every female is different....I didn't think my two were going to do anything at all, but my male would not do anything but sniff her until he knew she was ready....I keep mine seperated until I know I can be there to hold them after they tie, because they can really get hurt....and it being her first time she might be a little snippy and she might not. My little girl was not ready to take until day 12...I read someones post a while back and their female would not take until day 15...so you neve rknow. |

| If she is in fact pregnant, it sounds like you'll have to do a DNA test on each puppy to find out who the sire is. If both dogs are breeding her, she can have puppies from each sire in the same litter.

| Yes, it is possible that the female could have been bred by both males when left together overnite. And it is possible that you did not notice the exact day your dog came into her season and your count could be off a day or 2, therefore resulting in the possibility of her being bred overnite. DNA will have to be done to determine the sire of each puppy if you are intending to register the puppies. The dam and both sires and all puppies will have to be DNA'd. Good luck.
