Hello all you Yorkie Fans.
My wife, Maureen and I have had Yorkies (as pets) for the past 12 years. We have a bitch that we are considering breeding (4 years old). I have asked a potential breeder some questions concerning the process and have gotten some suspect answers. The breeder told me, when asked, that the stud can rejuvinate in 24 hours to breed again and that only one session is enough for a good breeding. I have been told you should wait at least three days between couplings and at least two couplings were needed to ensure more than one or two puppies. Can someone give me the correct information? In the back of my mind the stud is being overused.
Thanks LeRoy Dennis |
Stringing it out with three days in between is not good. I breed usually every other day starting at day nine for three times. OR sometimes I breed two days straight then forget it. My husband has bred, trained and shown Beagles for forty years. Many times we have had p[eople drive from all over the U.S. to breed to one of our champion stud dogs. They drive in, bred the dog,m then leave usually. rarely has an yone felt the need to spend the night and breed again on the second day. The dogs always had great litters from only one breeding. beagle litters are usually from six to eleven so you see, you have been told wrong about everything. The answers are not suspect but in fact aare very correct.
