| Question about pregnant yorkie Hello, my female yorkie who was 5.8 pounds before pregnancy has accidentally bred with our 12 pound yorkie. The vet said that she has three puppies, and that they are going to be small enough for her to deliver naturally. Has anyone else had a similar experience or heard of someone who has? I have no reason not to trust my vet but I also want to make sure I do the right thing for her. |

| I would be looking at that xray of those babies, and I would be measuring heads to see for myself if they will fit thru the pelvic ring. How much longer before she is due to whelp....babies grow a lot during the last 2 weeks.....what fits NOW may not fit in 2+ weeks..... What is BEHIND these two dogs in their pedigrees??? If that large male comes from a long line of large dogs, and your little girl comes from smaller sized yorkies, you should EXPECT problems...then if nothing happens, you were prepared and lucked out. It is always Russian Roulette having two intact dogs of the opposite sex under the same roof.....they always manage to make it happen....at the very least, know your lines behind your intact dogs, for at least 9 generations....THAT is a huge determination of what lies in the genetic shadows of the two bred dogs. Good luck with this unplanned, unfortunate situation..... |
