Breeding so your kids can experience the "miracle of birth" is one of the worst reasons to breed.
Please get her spayed and don't breed her. Whether she's purebred or not, she is way off standard. The reason so many Yorkies today don't look like Yorkies are supposed to look is that people keep breeding Yorkies who are not good representatives of the breed. Today's Yorkies also have terrible hereditary health issues as a result of irresponsible breeding. Did you know that Yorkies are 36 times more likely to have a liver shunt
than all other breeds combined?
