I'm new to breeding yorkies but have spent the last year and half reading all I could to educate myself. My baby girl comes from champion lines - her sire is a champion among others and she has been health tested. This is her second heat and she is a year and a half old and a lean girl at 5.2 lbs. She went into heat recently and on the 9th day I brought her to the studs house. He has been proven with a few litters already and is about a year and a half old also champion sired and health tested and 3.5lbs. So here's my problem. Despite multiple tries over the past few days -since Thursday, they only were able to tie one time. They both were very interested and tried and tried but never seemed able to "connect". Has anyone experienced this problem and have any idea what could be the issue? Thanks in advance for any advice. I'm stumped.  |
I have had the same problem in the past and sometimes there is just no good explanation. Sometimes the problem is because of a size difference and they are not lining up properly and other times it is because the female is just not ready or her vulva might be too tight or too small. You are lucky you got the one tie and that is all it takes if your timing is right. I recently had a female that I was only able to get one tie with on her 11th day and she is definitely pregnant. Keep us posted on how things go. I hope your girl is pregnant. It sounds like a nice breeding.
