No way. Too many complications even with a larger sized yorkie. Yorkies have multitudes of problems whelping. They usually have a hard time, and not all the litter survive. Sometimes unfortunately the mom doesn't survive either. That is multiplied if she is too small. Sometimes the babies are too big for mom's uterus. Very dangerous.

there are many breeds who whelp easily and have large litters that survive. Chihuahuas and pit bulls come to mind. Which is why there are so many in the shelters. Yorkies don't have large litters. Usually 3 or 4 and not all make it oftentimes.
