Hi everyone, I have a female Yorkie, Panini 1.4 years of age and 4.8lbs (now that she's pregnant.) I want to start off by saying that I originally wanted to breed her, but when the vet advised us against it, we decided not too. With that said, we couldn't afford to get her or my other Yorkie, Boshin (male), 1.6 years of age and 5lbs fixed. And we found out after the fact that we could have went to the animal shelter to do it.. but anyways. She was in heat and we weren't fast enough to separate them in time so here we are. I was hoping you guys could give me advice on what to do. I want to do whats best for my Panini and her pups. I don't want to sell them, just find them great homes with loving owners when they're ready and I really want to educate myself on this whole process.

Please help.

Thanks.
