Believe me, I have been asking!

What I'm seeing is a totally inexperienced person, with a lot on their plate and a too small girl that is likely pregnant. If you you want to see her through this, you have to clear your schedule to be there for her, no matter what else is going on. What you describe as 'ideal' is in fact necessary, along with many other things. And don't think for a minute that it stops when the pups are born. A great many of us have lived on naps for days on end hand feeding pups, have driven ourselves crazy trying to get a picky Mom to eat, fretted over a pup not thriving...the list goes on and on.

That is exactly what you are seeing. Like I said, it wasn't the best time...and I *should* have had my wits about me and made sure the two were separated. BUT I DIDN'T and now I must make the best of the situation.
I appreciate your viewpoint and sharing them with me.

I'm unsure why you are asking these questions on this forum if you have a friend that bred Yorkies. Do you not trust their mentorship?

*sigh* Just to make conversation with others who share the joy of the breed. Maybe I'm not respecting others' time here on the forum.

The bottom line is that if you are asking such basic questions as that in your other thread, then you are unprepared, despite the people you cited. Time to get cracking on your research and fully understand the depth of dedication involved to not only help whelp this litter but see the pups through to their going to their new homes.

Oh I am the first to admit I am not prepared. Definitely past time to get crackin!
