What's Up With This Male?? I have a female in her second heat. She is in standing heat and I'm using someone else's male. She's never been bred and he's never bred before. She's 7 lbs and he's 3-1/2 lbs but he can reach her. I've tried just about everything that I know of and still can not get them to lock up. Do any of you breeders have any suggestions or is there something wrong with the male or female? This is my third day of trying. |
Is he trying? Or is he not interested? They really don't have to lock/tie for her to become pregnant, but it helps! Can I ask how you know she is ready? |

He tries his heart out and is very interested!! On his first try(of putting them together), his penis will come all the way out and he just keeps missing. Then after that he pumps(I know graphic) and his penis will only come out a small amout and then he gives up on that try but then will try over again until he's just pumping and no penis emerges. Her bleeding has stopped, she stands, lifts her tail and also puts it to the side. She has even moved to try to guide him, which I thought was impressive for the first time. She's on day 9 and had stopped bleeding before then. Hope I'm making sense. |
Are you sure he can reach her? It sounds like hes close but not close enough. Will he let you put him on a pillow behind her? This will bring him up a little higher and may halp him get closer. |

I have done that, still with no results. I have the little puppy couch and have put him on top of that and she stands below and I still get the same result. It's like the perfect height, he starts out, works hard, and then just gives up :( |
Char...if it's too big...out of the shaft, it's going to be hard to get it in. You will have to lift him up by his bum and position him right on her vagina. Slowly apply pressure to his bum so he can feel that she is there. He should do it from there but if he is too excited, you're going to have difficulty and it's not going to go in. Been there...done this! :D |
holy moly . . . this just cracks me up :D I hope they "connect" |
Great News!! We had connection this morning!! Thanks for all the suggestions. We helped out and it worked :) |
Wow! You say she's standing on day 9? Isn't that unusual? I guess they all have their own schedule, but 9 sure seems early! Be sure to continue trying until about day 16-17. At least, that's what I would do. Good luck! |

Thanks for the advice. I will keep trying. She was definately standing on day 9 and of course is still standing. |
OMG this thread is too graphic in my mind!! I don't even want to go there!! |

How do you learn unless you ask? Maybe I should have taken it to emails. I know that I have had other people pm me now wanting to know how to accomplish this because they have tried and couldn't. I suppose they were afraid to ask because of it being graphic. It's all a part of raising yorkies. I'm sorry if this thread offended anyone. |

Glad they made the connection. I had trouble with my little Joey at first, used pillows, catalogs, then I had my girl face me, put each hind leg between my thumbs and first finger with the rest of my fingers pointing in back of her and then he stepped on my hands and bingo! That's how he did it every time. Never pictured myself doing that. Ha Ha Ha |
Thank you for being graphic...maybe it will discourage some back yard breeding...and this is a great place to ask questions; if someone is upset about this being graphic they are just reading the wrong thread.... |

I'm glad you asked the question and I'm glad it all worked for you. I am just getting into breeding and it's nice to find out some of the problems and the solutions and just to know there is a place to talk where people won't think you're weird. We don't think she's weird do we? :rolleyes: You have to admit, you wouldn't talk about this to just anyone. :) Jeanie |

Thanks for your support. I totally agree with you and say "thank you" to the others also that have supported and helped. I felt that being in the "Breeders" place is where this belonged. I also feel that if you read the first thread(which was graphic) and don't like it, then don't read the rest. I'm glad that this has helped others besides me. I thought that's what we're here for.... We also raise and breed cattle and have alot of conversations with other ranchers about problems and solutions as far as breeding goes. Again, thanks for the support. |
I guess sometimes they need some help... My breeder told me that the first time she bred her first dog.. She said the other breeder cracked open a bottle of wine, put on Marvin Gaye, and even lowered the lights. HOW FUNNY...and ended up paying $75 for insemination as her little boy dog was not "getting in the mood" with Marvin... cause dogs just dont work like people.... : ) Bren |

:lol tears That is just too funny!! We do have music on for them :) Maybe it's not the type of music they like. Never thought of that! :wink: |
