| AKC doesn't want a male to breed before 9mo. of age. But some yorkie males are slower at maturing and breeding than that. If your two run together, the male will know the best days to breed your female, which is usually on the 9-11 day after you first see blood. I think that you need to do some educating of your self on this breeding and whelping puppy things before going to far into it. It can be a disappointment if problems arise. |

| males have been known to mate at 7 mos. but, I don't think you can register them before 9 mos. As far as your female, how old is she, and how many heats has she had? You don't want to breed her before her 2nd heat..Also, what size are your female and male..? Here's a website that tells all about the females heat cycle http://animalpetdoctor.homestead.com/Reproduction.html |
