Well Pets are just that Pets. Pets are not bred, they are meant to be loving companions to the families that adopt them.
If you are a breeder of any purebred dog, (and you are, given you have had one litter and orchestrated another breeding), then it behooves you to learn and educate yourself about the basic principles of breeding. If you had you would have realized even one "incomplete" tie could result in your female being pregnant.
It is NOT recommended for almost any breed of dog, to breed a five yr old female for their first time at this age. Complication risk is much higher due to a number of factors; inelasticity of the pelvic foramen, age of the ova = increased risk of faulty or flawed ova; increased risk of "c" section and it's resultant risk of complications of health to the dam, lack of milk, lack of interest in the mom to nurse, etc, etc.
You speak of nothing around the breed specific tests you have done on your breeding pair.
Are you willing to financially care for these potential pups over their lifetime? Should LS, LP, Leggs Perthe, and the many other health concerns of Yorkies rear their ugly head?
So personally I care for the well-being of not only your female, but her pups have the best chance for a healthy and happy life.
