If she is 2 years old and has not ever cycled, she was either spayed before you got her or she has a hormone problem and is not a good candidate for breeding stock. This problem could be undeveloped overies, or she is not producing the correct hormones, in the correct amounts, to initiate a cycle, let alone support a pregnancy. If she SHOULD get pregnant, she may abort the babies at any time before her due date. Another concern is questionable development of the puppies and what is possibly undeveloped or un nurtured in the babies. These are genuine concerns for you to consider before you use this female as a breeding bitch. You do not ever want to start out with weak and/or faulty foundation stock. You need the best, strongest, healthiest foundation for a breeding program that you can possibly get your hands on. Yorkies are a whole different set of problems with breeding and whelping than any other breed....not a cake walk! If she is a female you spent 3-5 thousand dollars on, then you could possibly coax a pregnancy along with hormone therapy....huge expense, but you may consider that option! And still no promise on the health of the babies!
