That's what responsible breeders do, place dogs that for whatever reason don't fit into their breeding program into loving forever homes after they have been spayed or neutered. I'm not familiar with Yorkie breeders, but reputable Maltese breeders place their retirees for the cost of spaying/neutering, updating vaccinations, and a dental.

I don't know how many litters this girl has had, but I'd love to see her retired and no longer have to "produce".
