when to start breeding? My little yorkie is only 8 months old and had no intention of breeding her so young but I have a male Yorkie that I was keeping apart from her that managed somehow to slip our guard and literally in a matter of seconds they were stuck and well from that point there was nothing I could do. I now truly understand the term "like a dog on heat...". Not that this is a laughing matter. Anyway my question is, although not ideal is this dangerous or will it be detrimental to her health? Does anyone have suggestions or answers to my question? I would appreciate any help... |
first i would like to welcome you to yorkie talk.... okay so you say they tied well she might very well be pregnant she is very young to be be breeding im asuming this is her first heat just make sure you take her to the vet and have her checked out how much does she weigh?? if she is too small under 5 pounds it could be a health risk for your baby |
It depends on her size, build, weight, etc, not to mention his size, weight, etc. There are more factors to consider than just her age.... |
How big is she? |
oh my goodness!!!!!!!!!! |
Your little girl is WAY TO YOUNG to have a litter of pups!!!! I would have her spayed and problem solved. |

ohhhhh that poor baby. you need to let your vet know asap. normally you do not breed them until they have had their 2nd heat or 18 months old. |
I'd be taking her to the vet ASAP...have her spayed and a hard lesson learned. She's WAY to young to have a litter of puppies....in my opinion it doesn't matter the size of the male or female she's not mature enough to have puppies! I was watching on Animal Planet and they had a 8 month old larger female of another breed and she died because she was WAY to young to have babies Donna Bird Brooklynn's Yorkshire Terriers |
When our girls are in heat and we do not want them PG.WE have gates upon gates and doors closed as to no ACCIDENTS can happen.Boys go out with just the boys and girls go out with just the girls. Boys are fast and can be on a female in seconds,so to just supervise them is not an option they have to be seperated,especially the PUPPIES that are having their first heat! Ask yoru vet about a missmate shot if you will not have her spayed it needs to be given in the first 10 days or 7 days,it is hard on them also but that is really the only 2 options I would give myself if it was me. |

whats a missmate shot, is that like the morning after for dogs....? |
She's old enough to have spayed so that would be a better option so this wouldn't happen again "by mistake" JMHO Donna Bird Brooklynn's Yorkshire Terriers |
A missmate shot will terminate her pregnancy but it has to be done like now!!I would discuss this option with your vet I am sure he would rather have a shot or spay her then to let her have a litter at 10 months old. |
