Eleven dogs inside the house! Wow! You ARE a busy lady! I too love the little breeds, but I'm afraid to have too many because of the cost of all the vet care. Your little Mollyeet is adorable. Based on her photo, I am guessing she is well under 5 pounds. My Mia is around 3 pounds, and Mollyeet looks to be about the same size. The male you choose to breed her with could be the runt from his litter. Even though he is small, his genes could throw larger puppies. If a pup gets stuck being born, little Mollyeet's life could quickly become endangered. She would need a c-section that would require $2,000.-$3,000. surgery. Tiny Yorkies can crash medically very quickly. Their needs and care are much different than any other small breed of dog. My Lucy was a breeder dog. She now has mammary cancer, and I'm not going to have her much longer. It's so sad. Dogs spayed early and not bred are usually free from the risk of certain cancers. Your girl is getting up there to the end of her breeding years. Older dogs have more problems delivering. Please, please read and research everything you can before deciding to breed this tiny baby. Hugs to you and all your fur babies!
