Default Hard ?'s for breeders..

I was thinking about breeding my Lexi one time, keeping the pups and then haveing her spayed. I decided against it had her spayed and bought another pup instead.

I have however been considering breeding yorkies. I have lots of research to do first and I have to know I would beable to sell the pups after they were born. (I think I would have a problem wanting to keep them all). Now for my all my ?'s..

1) what test should be done on the female before breeding her?

2) what test should be done on the male?

3) roughly speaking what are the cost of taking care of mom while pregnant? (please break it down for me)

4) any special tips for caring for the mother while pregnant?

5) if c-section is needed to be done, what is the cost (roughly estimating)

6) what are the exspenses of the pups after birth til sale? (again please break it down)

7) any other exspenses I should be aware of?

8) what are the risk for the mother having a litter?

Please add any ?'s I may not have asked. I also wanted to point out even though I'm asking lots of ?'s about cost doesn't mean I can't afford it. Money is not an issue. I just want to know what to expect and if it is all worth it FOR ME...
