There are always risks in breeding and you have heard all the worst case scenarios but there are also many many joys in breeding if done properly and if all goes well. |
I am soon going to dip into the threads on how breeding really goes with Yorkies...that will be my determining factor, lol. As far as her being a good representative....I need to watch her grow and learn from what I see. Is she show quality? I doubt it. Does that mean I wouldn't potentially breed her with a yorkie male that is suitable? No...I would certainly consider doing it.
My biggest area of interest is learning about what needs to fall into place in order for it to be possible...and the risks and cost involved. When that time comes (should it come) I will probably start a thread about it...lol.
