Here is the thing Suncera even though you posted 6 yrs ago, that post stays forever. I don't know or need to know what happened to the two litters you were expecting then. But you do need to be honest, with folks here, which is a good start to be honest with potential show folks, who just might entrust you with a boy/girl of their lines. It has always worked for me. I am very well known in my small pond, and I have over 10 yrs earned the right to breed. And btw not Yorkies; although I was entrusted with a show Yorkie a couple of years ago. Why how did I get there you might ask. Well by attending shows, by training my dogs in obedience and rally. By being entrusted with my first show quality pup, and bringing him to a GCh |
Thanks for Information, yes I have spoke with some breeders that would mentor me, just getting different opinions. |
ok, thanks I am reading and learning all of this information as well, I have a friend that shows cocker spaniels and he is assisting me as well. |

What happen to the puppies your dog pretty much just had? |
I have a female that just delivered 5 puppies but, i'm learning that she is not in the weight category to show. No I don't consider myself as a breeder because I am still learning the breed. I would rather make sure I know what i am getting myself into before taking on that title. I breed her to a friend that i got to know quite well. So yes i'm still learning the do's and don'ts. And the care that these little guys need. |
Because I want to be more knowledgeable and get other opinions and suggestions, this is her first litter and I want to make sure that I do everything correctly as possible. I have my vet that is handy and a couple of mentors on hand. My female yorkie is not of show standards which she would not qualify to show. She is CKC registered only. Which I'm also finding out a lot about the registry as well. |

Wow, I am sorry that I came at anyone the wrong way, Maybe I didn't explain myself clearly. I in no way thought I would get this kind of feed back but understand quite well from stories from the breeders that I have talk to have told. It kind of makes it hard for new comers that are interested in showing and breeding. I know I have a lot more to learn. I do have a female yorkie that has had a healthy litter of pups on 04/29/12 and yes it was such a joy to be right there for her and with her when she delivered. I also have a AKC male that only weighs 2.5 Lbs that is cute as a button, but before I find a mate for him would rather have more knowledge of the AKC regulations. I want what is best for my babies and just want others to share my joy. I apologize in advance if I gave wrong impressions. I will stick with my veterinarian, friend, and mentors that are willing to guide me thru, which I see there will be a lot of learning to do. |
I have not owned a yorkie six years ago!! |
I agree with you and I am still learning as I go. Some of the mentors that I have spoken with say that they had some trial and errors before being a success. |
and thats what I am striving to be, is a good breeder. |
She gave birth to 5 beautiful puppies, 3 girls and 2 boys. I am learning still about whelping, nesting and such, so I made sure that I had a kit together just in case for emergency procedures and my vet on stand by. She slept by my bed for the last two weeks with me having sleepless nights to make sure she didn't deliver without me. |
