| ok well I dont know what the heck I've been reading she said something about not wanting to fix her female to soon cause when its done you cant go back and unfix it, and something about her female being nice, Oh well then she must have lied about getting her female fixed and its all her fault. Ive never heard of a dog being fixed and then poppin up pregos cause her 2yrold male got on her 10mth old. I really dont care anymore cause its not my dog and why the heck am I still posting to this page.... Really thats it for me... ITs All HER FAULT there are yall happy You have all fixed my miss reading eyes and now its all clear to me... yall have turned me, I agree with yall she should of been more RESPONSIBLE...

I don't know enough about all the circumstances to agree or disagree. I'm just saying at this juncture one should not simply jump into irreversible things but with that comes a great amount of responsibility -- in this case, whether it's a temporary financial upset or not, one should take a great deal of caution with the handling of an unspayed female around a male. It "may" have been a case she was thinking she "might" breed later down the road, then the financial problem arose and thus the situation she found herself in and due to lack of supervision (and possibly breeding knowledge) the situation happened...so regardless of her circumstances or past plans...the problem has arose and we should simply try to help not agree or disagree without the entire back story...but as stated before I don't think it's necessary for someone to post the whole (possibly long & boring) story just so those won't bash...just post the question and those with the answers should respond to just that and assume there is a credible back story in there. Just so many assumptions from the responders and seems silly to go places that may have nothing to do with the issue --- if people are going to "assume" why not assume the positive rather than the negative???

From what the OP stated, she has had her female fixed SINCE the accidental breeding, thus eliminating the chance of a conceived litter. LOL...I think you are confusing yourself...and possibly anyone else reading at this point. | |

Having said that, I don't see how I could assume positives vs negatives in this situation. We are talking about a 10 month old female who is too young to have puppies and owners who are not in a financial position to take care of a pregnancy, possible c-section, etc.. The OP inquired on YT over 2 years ago about breeding, so I would say it is something they wanted to do. If you want to breed though, you have to do your homework and education and that starts BEFORE you go and buy a female and male. You should be reading books, working with a mentor, etc.. If they had done that and had breeder knowledge as you mentioned, then they wouldn't have found themselves in that position. One could have learned a lot in two years! JMO

| I went back and read the first dozen or so posts in this thread and saw nothing but answers as to the best course of action and suggestions on lower costs options...at least, that's how it started out. It seemed pretty clear cut, question and answers, until excuses started being made for the OP and people started justifying her actions for her. Then after that, things seemed to start getting fuzzy... Irregardless, she found the answer and had her pup spayed, which was truthfully for the best in this situation. So obviously someone said something right. Last edited by BamaFan121s; 09-21-2010 at 11:04 AM. |

| The OP has gotten some great advice! I just want to point out that despite being in financial trouble, you still have a responsibility towards your dogs. I got my first Yorkie as a student and I did everything in my power to give him the best. He got the best food, he was neutered at 8 months, he has more toys than any dog I know, etc. Sometimes, I had to go hungry to afford food for him. And when he needed training, I used half of my income to pay for the best class. Now I have two Yorkies of my own (both sterilized) and I'm only 24. I'm always struggling financially, but I still find the money to take care of my dogs and even take in and care for foster puppies for welfare. You just seem to find the money when you really need it.

What exactly is the point of that when there are clear choices offered to the situation? I just don't get it.

| Some call may see it as harsh, some see it as blunt, direct, factual, etc.. This was a serious situation which could have had a terrible outcome.

| I didnt read the part where it said the 2 yr old was hers I miss read it. I was thinking it was another 2 yr old, I dont know and second after I went all the way back in the convo I learned that she did have it for 2 yrs and I agree now that 2 yrs is long enough. I called my Vet to see what it would cost to get my female fixed and it was like $140.00 so I now understand the whole concept of why go get another yk with out getting the first one fixed, I thought maybe she wanted to breed them later when the female was older but I also learned in her first post she said she didnt want to do that. So yes I now understand that she should have been more responsible with the whole thing and avoided the situation of having unwanted pups.
