This is something you must reconsider, with NOTHING but the well being of your little Mollyeet first and foremost. You are the only advocate that precious little baby has. Her very existance depends completely on the choices YOU make for her. You must take that responsibility with the seriousness it commands. Breeding these dogs is a crap shoot on a good day. Professionals with years of experience can have problems with breeding. When you have been involved with Yorkies for YEARS, and you know EVERYTHING you can know about your baby, her pedigree and all the dogs in her pedigree, genetic defects that have occured in those dogs, the different lines behind her, THE SIZE OF DOGS THAT HAVE HISTORICALLY BEEN THROWN BY THESE DOGS BEHIND YOUR BABY, and then you know the same things of the building blocks BEHIND the male you have chosen to breed your baby to, you are about 1/8 the way there. From reading your post, I do not think you have researched that information. Next, you need to know, if your baby weighs less than 4 pounds, you are taking a horrible risk. Your baby should be at least 5 lbs before you even THINK about breeding her. If you breed this tiny little girl, and she carries babies that are GENETICALLY PROGRAMMED to weigh 5 pounds or more, YOU have just given you little girl a death sentence. You can not do this to that baby. You have NO IDEA what you are doing, and I can not imagine why you want to take this terrible risk with a precious little life that adores you and depends on you to make the right decisions for her, so she can live out her God given destiny. Dont take that from her, you owe her more than that.

Frustratingly, the smallest yorkie stud I found still seems to be bigger than her. Im afraid that if I mate him with her, she will have big puppies or a lot of puppies that it might put her to risk.
I did find a stud, Eli, that's almost the same height as Mollyeet, but a little bit longer. The the thing is, he's a tri color. The owner describes him as a Tri-color yorkie and sometimes refer to him as Biewer Yorkshire Terrier. Eli's very cute and has a very lovely face.. they actually look alike. I love his color.
Im not quite sure what to do... I prefer to mate Mollyeet with Eli bec, there's a bigger likelihood that their puppies will me ba smaller. On the other hand, should I not mate them bec he's a Beiwer? Im actually annoyed that some consider Beiwer as a different breed when history itself says that the line came from Yorkshire Terriers. I want the puppies to be registered and recognized. In the past, all our dogs are mix breeds. Its just frustrating that now I have a pure bred dog, her puppies might be classified as mix breed again. |
