At 13, why don't you start attending dog shows and get to know more about the Yorkshire Terrier standard. Meet other breeders and find one that will be your mentor. You will learn so much. When you are ready, invest in a show quality yorkie and start to show. Once your yorkie is proven to be of quality to breed, do all the neccessary health testing before breeding. Please don't just breed to breed. If you're really interested in breeding, start researching now and like I said - find someone willing to mentor you. You will learn so much and be better prepared to breed.

very well said!
