| My yorkie is pregnet... I have a 7 pound yorkie that is pregnet and due in about 2 weeks. My vet advised for her tp get a c-section, but many people tell me a c-section is not needed. What should i do? Thanks. |

If I were in your shoes, I would never forgive myself if she died trying to whelp puppies she didn't have a snowball's chance in hell of safely delivering. If you're going to make a mistake, make it on the side of caution. Good luck ... | |

| You know a c-section might be a good idea. At the same time you can request a spay as well. My hats are off to the breeders. My Yorkie had 2 litters. The last litter she almost died. I can say that I am extremely happy that I got her spayed 2 weeks ago. Her personality is the best now. She is so loving and wants to spend every waking moment with me. I learned so much from this website. I want to thank everyone.

| The male is a yorkie as well. The girl is almost 3 years old. She has an ultra-sound scheduled for this Tuesday. I will probably take my vets advise and let her ger a c-section, just to be safe. Thanks. |
