I had read something about this also. I would have had no idea before I found YorkieTalk either.
How much does she weigh?
How much does the male weigh?
Are the male and females line clear of liver shunt, luxating patella...?
Did you have the male and female tested for liver shunt, luxating patella, ear and eye problems, STDs,...?
Did the female come from a line of free whelpers?
I know it's a lot to think about. Breeding is a huge responsibility.
