| Based on your Experience...? Hi There! Over the past month my Yorkie's boyfriends have increased, if I may say so lol, she has never been pregnant. We all want her to have puppies and we don't plan to sell any but, our only concern is that in February, of the present, she turn 6. The vet told us that she is healthy, that at least giving birth once is good for her and as long as the male is the smallest there will be no problem, after she has the puppies we plan to sterilize her. Anyways, Based on your experience, what do you think? This is her one month ago... http://img215.imageshack.us/img215/8074/0802091022.jpg |

| If that is 6 years that she turned in Feb she is way too old to breed. Please don't breed her because you'll be putting her life and health in danger. She is so ADORABLE!!!!

| Oh, she is beautiful ! I too have heard that at her age it could be dangerous and she could have complications. I personally would not risk it. She could live a long, long time loving you if she's not put at risk.

| Safty is key. Since she does have lots of urn neutered buddies It may be your best bet to have her fixed. Small dogs have a small window to have puppies. If you think in human terms shes well into her 50's so to speak. Spay her spoil her and keep an eye out for a rescue in your area if you want a new one around . |
