I'm very confused as to what you are trying to say. Your parents have a yorkie and you are looking to add a female to breed? If this is your intent this is not the way to go about become a breeder. Breeding dogs takes so much more knowledge than putting two dogs together to produce puppies. You need to understand and learn from someone very knowledgeable regarding the breed. My suggestion would be to take 3 GIANT steps backwards and get a proper start to breeding. Good luck!

I would like to also add a little "food for thought"........you might receive PM's outside of your post with offers to sell you puppies to breed. Please think about the type of person that would be willing to sell you their puppy sight unseen for $500 or less. Then think about the quality puppy someone is willing to sell you to use for breeding. Probably not a very good representation of the breed to begin with so you will in turn be producing a poor representation of the breed as well. Is that how you want to begin your breeding experience?
