And to me 3 1/2 lbs. qualifies a teacup! So what if my terminology isn't up to your standards. How snooty are you guys anyways? I thought this was a forum for those who love their Yorkies!? Not a forum full of yuppies! Anyway Daisy looks like she would like to have some company cause lily is much older, so I thought she might like to have some pups. This is the reason why I asked my simple initial question..... Does anyone know of a breeder here in southern California? Daisy does have all of her papers so of course a stud withpapers and healthy would be the only choice. So help or don't help, but don't mock my intensions! I care a great deal for my babies and just cause I'm not too keen on your terminology and breeding techniques doesn't mean that I don't take proper care of my girls!

Reading back on the posts; no one stated you were a new yorkie owner, but new to breeding. Yes, this is a forum of yorkie lovers, but also here to assit and educate new and existing forum members.

At times people on YT can become very intense on certain subjects (the term Teacups being one such subject,breeding responsibly is another.) Please, please compile all the information you can on this subject, before you attempt breeding, if you haven't already, find a mentor. There are long time reputable breeders on YT that are very experienced, plan every breeding scientifically, studying pedigrees, spend countless hours determining which stud will best compliment their female to improve the breed, but still fear the whelping time for their matrons. So many things can go wrong. Are you really prepared to lose your female and/or puppies. This can happen with the most healthy female.
