the above is a good beginning there are several links that will explain the mating process

hope this helps

A male can be fertile at 6 months, but his puppies can't be registered with AKC until he is 8 months. He is fertile every day unlike a female. It's better to wait until he is at least a year.

A female is mated on the 10th, 12th, and 14th day after bleeding begins. The female is usually taken to the male because she seems to be less aggressive in his territory.

The male and the female should be tested for brucellosis. This is a venereal disease that can be passed from dog to dog and can make a male sterile and a female abort the babies.

Payment for the stud service can be a puppy or can range from $250.00 to thousands of dollars depending on the quality of the stud.

Of course, your stud should be free from any genetic problems that can be passed on in the line. The female should be larger.

The female should be larger...you know I hear this often, WHY should the female be larger? Why has this become "rule of thunb"..that the female is larger?

Do people think it affects the size of the puppies at birth? At maturity?

You've got many generations (both sides) determining what size puppies are going to be at maturity, and MOST Yorkie litters size at birth is dependant not upon how big dad was, but how well fed mom is, how many puppies she's carrying (obviously a large litter will often have some smaller puppies), or mom's size if she is abnormally large (9+ lbs pre pregnancy)..in which case it's a given you are going to use a smaller male because mom is not within standard.

Really just to clear up the misconception, it is NOT necissary to use a smaller male than female. I have very successfully whelped litters where the male was over a full lb bigger (both were in standard) and had no problems what so ever, nor especially large puppies. I've also whelped a litter where mom and dad were exact same size (allowing an ounce or two)..pups were all in the 3-4 oz range, no issues.

The problem is these morons who think it's okay to use a 12 lb male with a 6 lb female. Obviously the 12 lb male just needs to be neutered!

You're right, but with limited space and translation I just wanted to throw that in as a basic precaution. Of course, anyone who is going to breed should know more than they can get from this forum alone.

Very good point! :)

thanks for all of your input, this is just i want to get idea for my self. ofcurse if in future i plan to breed him i will get information as much as possible:)
