This is especially true if the father is not another Yorkie--the size of the puppies could kill the mother during childbirth. We're not being judgmental here--we're concerned for the health and safety of the mother and the unborn puppies. Based on what you've told us, this was an unplanned pregnancy and you're not sure about prenatal care of the mother, so if this is the case, absolutely get an emergency spay. |
