Hello!
Just yesterday, I became the owner of a 1.5 yo Yorkie named Mia. She's just the sweetest little thing
I've been reading here a lot and I know some of you feel very strongly about breeding and I respect and thank you for that but I hope you will nicely give me some guidance. There is a chance Mia is accidentally pregnant by her previous owners friend's Yorkie. This took place two weeks ago, they are both registered, in good health and the same size.
With this being a holiday weekend, I can't get her in to see my vet so I thought I could start here. If she is, I do not want to immediately spay her, her puppies would stay within our extended family. However if she is not, she would get spayed asap and is she is, as soon as she can after delivery. She is showing all the signs...tired, extra cuddly, not eating, enlarged teets/vulva, licking herself/very slight vomiting.
What should I read/watch/buy to prepare for this? Please do not flame me for my decisions to keep the pups. I will not be selling them and they too will get fixed as soon as they can and hopefully this will have a good outcome.
I know there is so much to learn in a very short amount of time but pointed in the right direction, I'm sure we'll make it. Common sense, street smarts and educating yourself goes a long way, lol
Anyway, sorry for the long post and thank you in advance. You have a great site here!
