Are your dogs registered? Is there one male your want to breed her to? It is good that you are trying to keep her separated and I do understand that Yorkies can escape. You just have to take extra precautions to keep them apart. Your female will be in heat for a total of 21 day so it is important to keep them apart that long. You will want to just put the male and female together around the 10th day and see if they will breed. You should alway be there to supervise so neither male or female will get hurt.
Did you get your Yorkies as adults or have you had them since they were puppies? I gather that you have never breed any of them yourself so do you know if any of them have been used for breeding before? We will be glad to help you all we can and there much to learn. Any input from you would be helpful. |
Thank you, yes I got them since they were pups,. They are all registered by AKC.
