Default whelping

I am very sorry, but nothing like a lesson learned. You have posted your experince and it will help others..
If you breed her again, you must learn all you can to help your Yorkie delivery safely. You can shorten the whelping and no doubt insure a better result if you gently pull the puppy out..it will save her energy and most likely the pups life. Once the cord is chewed off and the pup is not out, it sufficates.

Your girl is small and most likely not the best size for breeding..please see the vet asap to make sure she is empty of pups and placentas and she needs a shot to prevent infection.
Best wishes
