my 10 year old yorkie could be pregnant i have a 9 month male yorkie,and took for castrastion on thursday...all went well....untill my female 10 year old is in season and was at the end of her cycle,when the male went for op,was able to keep apart...but when male dog arrived home,decided to rip off the females nappie,and mate her....it was horrrific..couldnt beleive my 9 month dog would be interested,straight after a op...luckliy the male didnt do any damage to his stitches..etc..but they mated,and locked...now im so upset,as i would love puppies...but the vet has said we can take her for a injection to get rid...!!!!! am i doing the right thing for my female.xxxx |
I'm confused....did he mate with her Before or AFTER his surgery? I guess it doesn't matter..he would probably still be able to impregnate..hmmm 10 years old is WAY to old for her to be able to handle having pups!! Check out this link!! http://www.yorkietalk.com/forums/bre...d-too-old.html |
I would think it could be very dangerous for your female to have puppies at this late age. I am not an expert in dogs but I used to raise Bengal cats and wouldn't ever have one give birth when she was that old. Listen to your vet and get the shot - puppies are cute but definitely not at the expense of your 10 year old. Good luck!:) |
thanks...i do agree my 10 year old is too old.. |

Is this the same female you thought was pregnant in 2008? http://www.yorkietalk.com/forums/bre...ml#post2125190 |
he mated after the surgery? if so, i dont think she's pregnant... but, i'd still take her to the vet and discuss this with the vet to double check |
Sperm lives in the vas deferens for a couple of weeks after a castration. It is possible impregnate the female during that time. |

If all problems were so easy to solve..have her spayed asap..and she will never risk a pregancy or fatal unrine infection, pyrometra. |
thanks for all your comments....i have taken notice. my 10 year old female has had her jabs over the last two days....to terminate,if she is...we now have to wait 4 weeks to get her rechecked at the vets...then go from there...hopefully she will be ok.then i can consider her future. KEEP YOU POSTED. XXXXXX:aimeeyork: |
Soooo I take it you are not going to spay her? |
