Snickers is 7months. i was told he wont go any tallee or bigger unless i over feed him. but then again you never know. i dont know why i didnt ask the lady these questions. My mind was just set on making sure i could have him. ill email her and ask her. im trying to research but i read if he isnt tiny or a champion then its useless to do so. I hope thats not true. Anyone know of a good book or website?
p.s. how do i get pretty pictures pf snickers like you guys have. are there really professionals that will do it? i can never get him to stay still!!

As far as size goes that is a good match for breeding. If Snicker's is 7 months it is possible he will gain another pound or two. Some lines stop growing sooner than others. It is best not to use a male for breeding until they are at least a year old so you have plenty of time to research breeding. If you are truly interested in breeding then you should do lots of research and perhaps attend a few dog shows so you can see was a quality yorkie looks like. Of course people do breed their pet dogs all the time without concerns as to their quality. It all comes down to what kind of breeder you want to be. Show breeders and those dedicated to the better of the breed will frown upon breeding any yorkies that are considered pet quality only.
You can learn a lot here on yt and there are books I have seen recommended but I don't remember off hand what those books were.
As for pictures, just get a digital camera and start taking pictures. Usually you can get them to stand still with a treat or just take some candid shots when he is relaxing.
