When I bought my first Yorkie, 3 yrs ago it was with the intentions of breeding her...Not to make money...more for wanting another puppy and not wanting to spend over another 1000.00...I have, in the past, bred Golden Retrievers...After doing much research I decided this wouldn't be in the best interest in my Sadie...I would never want to do anything that would jepordize her life and....the cost of raising puppies isn't cheap or if she needed a C-section...in the end it would have ended up costing me more than if I had just bought another Yorkie...Hubby new I wanted to breed..(he loves the girls but, not into them like I am) he too wasn't happy when I told him I wasn't going to breed...He thought I just told him that so I could get a dog...He doesn't really understand the breed and feels because they are "animals" that nature would just take it's course....As I said, I have been a Yorkie owner for 3 yrs now and just bought another yorkie girl back in August... I did alot of research and read all the books I could find before buying one. That being said.....I WILL NOT BREED! I am leaving that to the professionals. And as for hubby....he still can't understand why I won't breed and I really don't care....these are MY furbabies and I WILL NOT do anything that could cause me to lose them...
I can't believe that a husband would either let you buy or buy you a dog and then EXPECT YOU to pay HIM back! I would just take your little girl to the vet and have her spayed without him even knowing...
