Second let me go on to tell you AKC papers only prove that both your dog's parents were registered, it doesn't prove that that your dog is pure bred (most likely she is). There is no test out to date that proves that there wasn't some hanky panky in the wood pile way back in her pedigree. Anyway not having papers is in your eyes very important. If you don't have a signed contract that the breeder would provide you AKC papers you're pretty much hosed. If you do....don't let the breeder get away with it. If you plan to breed your female, and sell puppies, then you'll probably have to sell them for less. As far as your female being 6-7 pounds.....how wonderful. It's the weight range I prefer my breeding females to be. But, what is more important is they are a great representation of the breed, that I know their pedigree, that they come from a line of free whelpers.
In closing.....good for you, stand by your convictions of breeding pure bred yorkies.....good luck to you.

Thank you so much for your kind words and everyone elses I don't want to ofened anyone but if I do breed I only wanna breed purebreed yorkies I think it is very important that we perserve the breed and like I said I perfer purebreed yorkies I'm glad I got to find out where coco's parents are from because for the longest time I thought she was a mill dog and I now noe she's not. If the breeders of her parents don't give the papers for them to be akc registed I can at least get the pedigrees and that way I know what lines coco comes from. I'm still waiting for a reply from them and will keep everyone updated I did want to get into showing when I get older so I will probably get another yorkie in the future and probly form a breeder on yorkietalk. Oh and one more question since I might not have papers if I do breed what should I price the puppies at because I have no idea mary what do u think?
