My grandaughter has a Maltese that usually has 4 or 5 puppies, but there's always one or two from the litter that doesn't make it. So she wants to try my smaller male Yorkie with her female Maltese, because she likes the breed combination and hopes that all the puppies will survive if they are smaller. Good Luck with your puppies? |
Just because an animal is "popular" doesn't mean it necessitates more breeding. Look at all of the breeds that were once "popular" and see how many of them ended up in shelters and being euthanized
I am not trying to start something but it really upsets me to hear anyone justify a mixed(or pure for that matter) because its "popular"
