This is bigger & taller than the average Yorkie 4-7#'s & 8" tall. I am only guesstimating, bc you have no idea what's behind their lines...
Hope you'll make an informed decision on the best interest of your puppy. |
Very good point about the pelvic bones. Being that she is still a pup herself, her bones are still soft as she is not finished growing. Bless her little puppy heart.
For many years, I wanted to breed. After knowing what it takes, the time, $$$, because so much can go wrong. When breeding, you basically have to live your life around a pregnant dog. You cannot leave for work or to have fun when they are getting close to birth... just so many many things could and do go wrong, and it can happen so quickly. No quick trips to the store or out to dinner.
When I realized these things, it made me appreciate the breeders and knew that unfortunately, it just wouldn't work for my lifestyle. I do know I would have done a good job because of the love and devotion I do have. But, I also know that I couldn't live my life tied down like that. I DO so love you breeders!!
