How do we find a male to breed her with, and should we pay the owner of the male?
You could buy your own male to breed her with, or maybe look in your local area for one. Unless you know the owner of the mle (close friends and family), then you probably have to pay the owner or give them some of the puppies.
How much do we charge for the yorkies once they are born?
I really dont know, sorry.
What additional information do we need to know?
The things you need to test both male and female for, when the female goes into heat and how often, what a tie is, how long they are pregnant for, how to care for the puppies, how to care for them if their mother wont, and a LOT more. |
Bitches will in no case be bred before their second heat or before they are at least eighteen (18) months of age, whichever comes first, nor be placed at risk by an unreasonable number of cesarean sections and then only with the concurrence of a veterinarian.
Chosing a stud to breed with has many factors, one that will compliment your female and/or fix faults that your female may have, has been tested for all genetic diseaes, a great representation of the breed.
Stud fee is usually comperable to the price of a puppy or a puppy back.
Pups are priced differently in each region.
