But what you really need to make it all work is a mentor. Someone who has been breeding for a reasonably long time that is willing to guide you through this process, including picking out your breeding male and female. There are people here who can give you good advice, but you need someone who will work personally with you and your yorkies. Keep reading and researching, and look for a good mentor. Best wishes, and keep posting. It will be fun to see your progress.

I agree!
