One must understand that there are few vets that specialize on Yorkies or Toy breeds. So, I understand that your vet would tell you that it was ok to breed on your pups first cycle. However, he gave you incorrect advice for your yorkie. Never breed on their first cycle.....18 months of age or 2nd Season.
I'm truely concerned at the small size of your female......and I will say, the lack of information and education you acquired prior to entering the breeding world.
X-rays should not be performed on your female until a week before her whelping date. I have them done on my girls, just to assist me in knowing their position and skeletal size...not always accurate, but it helps me to be better prepared when the blessed event happens.
Good Luck
