My male is 3lbs and very timid. He will be afraid of the puppies. They will be as big as him soon then 5 of them
..he is gonna be funny to watch. I also have to keep him calm because he is the yorkie with the collasped trachea. I will wait to introduce them. Gezell used to treat him as a puppy. She goes downstairs to see him, wags her tail then goes back to her puppies. Her puppy breaks are usually to see me with lots of licking
..maybe she is thanking me in her doggy way..lol..thanks again YT

I know another breeder who had a male what actually killed some of her pups when the pups got older (over 12 weeks). Most males won't harm a little puppy as long as they can get away from them. |
