A 3 lb female is WAY too small to breed. The general rule for Yorkies is to not breed a female under 5 lbs and even then you have to take into consideration other factors, like pelvic structure, if the dog came from a line of free whelpers, etc. I am shocked and saddend that this lady would even entertain the thought of breeding a tiny 3lb, unregistered girl that she rescued. She clearly is not concerned about the life of her dog. But as the potential stud owner, you have an obligation to do what's right too. Why would you be willing to go along with it?

You stated that the owner of the female will make more money off of the endevour. Ethical breeders rarely if ever see profit from breeding. There are so many costs to cover IF going about things the right way, i.e. medical testing, supplies, vaccinations, etc. You're actually concerned about how much more she will make than you will? So to answer your question, IF you guys were being responsible, then neither of you would likely see any profit at all....so you'd be even.

Sadly, per your post history, I doubt you will take any advice anyone has to offer to heart.
