Now what if your girl requires a C-section -- big money! Yorkies usually have small litters, what if she only has one puppy? What if there are none born alive? Now the final considerations is one that I am all too painfully aware of -- what if you lose your precious girl because of having the puppies?
If the only reason for breeding is to have a puppy for family -- BUY one from an established breeder and spay your girl -- you might be saving her life. |
You have pointed out many good reasonable points; makes perfect sense, and I couldn't agree more.
To the OP; if $$$ in buying a pup is an issue, listen to FlDebra. Breeding your girl will end up costing just as much or more by the time your done raising the litter.
