| Breeding without tying? Is it possible to have dogs successfully breed without tying? Over the weekend we got Chloe to mate with my cousins miniture Daschund. We let them alone in the room together, and the first day (as far as we can tell) was just more sniffing/licking and getting used to each other. Today they brought him up again for about 4 hours, and when we went to let them out (thinking that nothing had happened) we noticed a few wet spots on the floor, then found the dogs mating just outside the door. From what we saw the dogs never tied, and because she is a little taller than him he also had some trouble reaching the target, but he did manage to "get it in" (for lack of better term) a few times and there was a wet spot on the floor when he pulled it out. That being said, no one had checked on the dogs for a half hour to 45 minutes before this, so there is a slight chance that it could have happened before. So here are my two questions: If they did manage to successfully breed and tie, would they have still been after each other after we let them out? Is it possible for them to successfully breed without tying? Thanks, and sorry if the description is a little gross! lol

| Z Its not very likely, but completely possible. Given the circumstances, I hope that is not the case this time. There should never be any question as to "if" they tied. Dogs should NEVER be left alone to tie unsupervised. It puts both the male and female at risk for injury. The questions you have asked are very basic concepts in regards to breeding--things that should be researched and common knowledge BEFORE you ever start breeding to begin with. These are not things that you just 'pick up as you go.' Not to mention, your dog is 6 1/2 years old. She is to old to be breeding at all! Last edited by BamaFan121s; 06-14-2010 at 01:44 PM. |

| Yes, there is a chance it did take. Male dogs will actually keep trying until the are too tired to try again. I have some Very Big concerns for you: 1.) You should never let them mate by themself. They could get really hurt! 2.) Your Chloe is 6 1/2 years of age (I looked at some of your old posts where you stated her age) and I am assuming this will be her first litter! OMG 3.) You are breeding mixed puppies on purpose????? Yes, why? * You must have not done your research a head of time. Which makes me concerned too that they were not health tested (before breeding), and crazy to breed mixes. Also I am very concerned about your girl. If this is her first litter you need to have your vet contacted and watch her carefully over the weeks before delivery. And her delivery may not go well. She may end up with a c-section. My last one was over $800.00. Her uterus is not as young as it once was and it is not recommended (by the experts) to breed a dog after they pass the age of 3 (for the first breeding), due to the lack of elastic stretch the uterus has now. Be very concerned! Last edited by topknot; 06-14-2010 at 02:00 PM. |

Phantom Queen Morrigan Donating Member | wow... just wow... there are so many things wrong with what you did that i don't even know where to begin. I really hope Chloe is not pregnant and if she is i would immediately have her spayed. She is too old for a first time whelp. she will probably have complications and need a c-section, AND after all of that you may lose her and the puppies. are you prepared for that?

| Yes, it is possible for a breeding to be successful without a tie. However, for the life of your girl I hope not. And for the life of the pups, should there be any. http://www.yorkietalk.com/forums/yor...-answered.html

| This OP may be young and still living at home, since she mentions her mom a lot and being at home with her (via past posts). If this is the case, does your mom know you bred your dog? And she will need to know now to avoid anything happening to your precious yorkie, Chloe. |

| JMO and you may all vote me off YT if you want..but the Breeders section is for the breeding of Yorkshire Terriers... I am so very willing to help anyone with an accidental breeding, a pregnant rescue or found pregnant bitch etc...but ethically I can not respond to posts where the owner had seen fit to breed a Yorkie to a Doxie...I used to breed Doxies myself years ago and never had any desire to ruin two fine breeds by mixing them... |

| There is nothing good in this. Nothing. Yes we see mixes, Yes we see older yada yada. This is too hurtful. It's all of them and they're all wrong. She should be spayed. It's very wrong. To answer your question. As much as it pains me. Yes, it's called an outside tie. Please spay your bitch and buy a puppy if you want one. This is a shame. This hotdog deserves better. |

| Ok, I'm not even sure how to respond to this... 1. I'm not sure what everyone has against mixbreeds... but apparently there is something wrong about it? 2. I've been told many times the best way to breed dogs is to let them alone to do their thing... That being said, I am also starting to think (know) that I made a huge mistake, and I too am now hoping she is not pregnant. We have been trying to breed her for a long time, we just couldn't find another small male, so when he came over and they showed interest we let them. Both dogs are in good health, but I'm freaking out about the fact that where she is old and something could happen during birth. If she is pregnant we will be having a vet watch her. Thanks

Good health is a very open ended statement. I hope you are right. I want her to be. You don't leave yorkies to just do their thing. This is another topic. I don't know anything about breeding hotdogs. | |
