Thank you !

Yea, be ready for an awesome experience !

. Read anything and everything to prepare yourself in order to provide the proper care of your girl and unborn pups before during and after birth.

. In her 6th - 9th week and until the pups are weaned you should be feeding her a calcium right diet. The puppy version of whatever food she is eating now. Including can puppy food.

. Have your vet and emerg. vet # on hand

. Start putting money back for an emergancy, tail docking, dew claw removal and vet bills.

. Get your supplies ready and start saving news papers. You can pick up old bedding, towels, baby blankets and rugs at garage sales and thrift stores. You'll need lots of them.

. Figure out where she will be having & raising the pups for at least an 10-12 week period.

Look here for helpful info: Breeder Talk - YorkieTalk.com Forums - Yorkshire Terrier Community
