I posted my reply to this thread in the middle of the night and had to check to see if I even sent the reply. I have another bit of info that I will tell anyone who is considering breeding and asking where they can find a good girl or boy. I ask questions that a breeder, whether new to breeding, experienced with other breeds or have just bought the "cutest little Yorkie puppy you ever saw!" and all my friends want one just like him/her.
Unless you have spent the past 1-3 years researching, going to shows, reading on the internet, talking to responsible breeders (not necessarily show breeders or handlers), and maybe making a nuisance of yourself by asking for the most minute detail AND still going to your mentor a lot, you are not ready to even take the first step of putting 2 dogs together to make puppies.
Breeding begins years before you buy a breedable Yorkie. You do yourself a favor but you do the breed as a whole a much bigger favor by making responsible decisions that will affect dogs you are responsible for the rest of their lives.. |
