Tongue New to Yorkies and Breeding (HELP!!!)

So I rescued a male Yorkie in Jan from being put down and a female from a lady who couldn't care for her any more. I was told the female had just finished her cycle so I would not have to worry about breeding. That night the two of them got stuck together. I took her to the vet and the vet said to count on having puppies. Well when the time came he said is was a false pregnancy and to give her six weeks to recover. Then have her fixed to avoid future potential issues such as uterine infections.

Three weeks went by and she started spotting for about three days and now my male yorkie has hooked with her three days in a row.

What am I suppose to think! I thought they only went into heat ever six months. Does that mean maybe she was never in heat at all the first time and that maybe there was never really a false pregnancy, but maybe she has the potential to be pregnant now? Is it possible to have a false pregnancy followed up by a cycle shortly afterwards?

If she has one litter I wouldn't be disappointed because my mother in law wants one and so does my sister. I do not however have any intention of putting her at jeopardy or becoming a breeder. My vet is out until Monday at this point. Just wondering what those with more experience think?

HELP!!!
