One thing I do know is they will both be vet checked all over again before breeding anymore. Some people say as long as they are healthy but most is five years. |
Autumn is 3..she will be 4 in September...I was heartbroken when she only had one surving pup with her litter in August so I made the decision not to breed her again.
Autumn was my pet first, and my very first yorkie...and since she is my heart I can't rehome her...but after reading the posts by Sugarsmom and YorkieRose I comepletely understand the reasoning behind rehoming retired bitches. Thank you for taking the time to explain.
