| stud Hi, I am thinking about studding my baby out, but I have a couple of questions first. Is their any pro's and con's to studding a yorkie. In no means do I want to do this if he can be hurt in any way. My husband is gun ho on this ( A MAN THING I GUESS lol HE SAYS JUST ONE TIME) Also Gimpy is missing two toes, but very healthy. How do I find the truth out about what happen I would like to know before trying to stud him. I do have a breeder asking me about studding him for 375.00 but I wonder why cause she knows Gimpy has this. I don't feel comfortable with her because she knows this and still wants to breed him. Is this something to worry about and not breed him or what. I didn't think someone would want to breed him if they think it is a birth defect because he could pass that trait to the pups right? The breeder is a very nice older lady, very clean, healthy looking yorkie. goes to same vet i do, will show me all vet papers. I did not talk to vet about her yet thou. What questions would I ask breeder before I would go thought with this He is too young right now, but I'm just researching this before I do any thing. I want to make sure my baby will be ok.and the puppies will be ok no birth defects THANKS SORRY ABOUT RAMBLING ON |

| The best male pet is a neutered one. An unneutered male is more likely to roam, hump objects, mark your house with urine, and be more aggressive to other male dogs. The earlier you neuter the better your chances of him not developing these behaviors. If you decide to stud your Yorkie, he won't be ready until about 1 year and maybe even a bit longer. By breeding only once, you have already lost the advantages of having him neutered early and will have to deal with the behaviorial consequences for the rest of his life. The missing toes could be related to the Mom's exposure to some chemical while pregnant, but it could also be genetic. It could also be from Mom chewing the toes off. Probably not any way to be sure exactly what the cause is - the breeder would be the best one to give an opinion on this. |

Well said! This is so definitely true! We chose to breed our toy poodle "just one time for the heck of it" years ago and let me tell you, I regretted it all the time afterwards. He was a red toy poodle - not a common color in our area - so we said yes when the owners of a red female asked us. Dax (our poodle) never marked before that. He was a nasty marking machine afterwards. And for some reason, it's a darker, stronger smelling urine. I can't comment on the aggressiveness because he was such a laid back dog and that didn't change. Any time I hear of people wondering if they should stud their male out - even for "just one time", I have to point out all the bad side. If what you want is a pet for life, neuter him.

| studs I had two yorkies. My first one he was breed all the time. But the breeder I got him from did the breeding since he was to small. They had to watch him because the females were always bigger then him. So he wont get hurt. He never marked in my house but he did cry to go back for some more fun. My second Yorkie never was breed and I never had a problem with him marking in the house. Hanna |
