I do to.From my understanding and from what I have been told (vet, mentor etc), things go well and straight forward more often than not, and most bitches will whelp and not need any asistance.
BUT, if something
does go wrong, you need to be cold blooded and react.You need to put your emotions aside and do what you need to do, and I am a "freezer" when it comes to that.
Itīs also an expensive process.People tend to think that you breed and get a bunch of free yorkies - Thereīs no such thing as a free puppy
ALOT goes into breeding and it doesnt end when the pups arrive either.I donīt think Iīve slept a full night since the pups were born, because every little squeek and every little sound makes me turn on the light to make sure everything is ok.The worry doesnt go away.
This is the main reason I will be keeping these puppys and why I wont be breeding again.I feel like Iīve put everything in me into this and now I am emotionally attached to all 3.I will never get back all that Iīve invested (not talking about money here

) so they are staying with me.
Being as I know this would happen
every time, and I canīt have a housefull of yorkies, I am done
