we took her for a check up and they said shes an "early bloomer" and according to her vet she will reach the size of 5+ but in a little more time. he said something about her paws being bigger. |
I seriously doubt a vet that goes by a Yorkies paw size, can accurately tell you how large your girl will be! I would go back at least 9 generations in her pedigree, and find out what size puppies the majority of the dams and sires produced. THAT will be a lot more reliable than guessing her size by looking at her pawsw! Your breeder/shower friend that gave you the pup will surely be able to help you with this. |
I asked her she said the last 3 generations are 4.5 - 7 pounds and that her grandparents were over 5 pounds. he said that's what happened with her mom she didn't grow as much but then she grew much bigger this could happening to kari. |
I just weighed her. shes not 3 pounds!!! that was when we took her to the vet 3 months ago. she was 5 pounds and a quarter. she is 17 centameters tall. that is perfect.. ill go ands test her for genetics and see if she is ggood if she is ill go and breed her at the age of 3-4. |

yes my vet said I can take her in to do exams for her tests. 2 year of age is also a good age for her to litter . |

That's not the kind of testing that should be done prior to breeding. Look, no matter what anyone says here, you are probably going to do what you want any way. Just be prepared for the possibility of losing your female or some/all of the pups and spending a boatload of money while you are at it. |
so ill spay her? |

seh did say all those things |
sorry not 3 pounds I meant 3 years her dad is around 5 pounds her mom 6 . her graandparents are more than 5. |
Kari with all due respect, it doesn't sound to me as if you even know enough about the yorkies or about breeding to safely breed your pup. Granted, I to am new. I just got my first Yorkie, but im not planning on breeding mine nor would I when I know so little about it. I really do apologize for being so blunt, and if I am coming across rude, but sometimes bluntness is needed. I dont think you have a clue of what your doing, so shouldnt be doing it until you do know. For the sake of your pup, I hope you will consider that. Its not fair to her that you breed her just because you want puppies when your not yet properly educated and prepared to do so. It could mean a lot of suffering or death for her. |

ok thank you |
yoou seem like you want to learn and you are trying hard to get along with peoplee on here even though they are telling .some things you probably dont want to hear. I am letting you know this as kindly as I can. There are alot of risks to breeding and not alot of reward. Good breeders say they are lucky to break even. The first thing you would need to do is have her evaluated by a show breeder to see if she is breed wortlhy. Then if she is you would have to go through health testing to make sure she cant pass on some genetic problem to her pups. Most yorkies are not breed worthy although they are valuable to their owners as pets. So I hope you do some soul searching and decide your girl means more to you as a pet rather than a money maker |
yeah I will ask my vets to see who can do testing for breeding and genetics and she isn't as small shes 5 pounds. her mother and father grandma never had issues but just in case I will test her t whatever costs.and if she cant I willl keep her as a spoiled doggy. thank you |
I'm going to be as polite as I can when I say this. You should not even be considering breeding your dog. You have no idea what you're doing, you have not had any testing done, your girl is maybe 5 pounds, which is too small to breed nd honestly, your story is all over the place..... You say you don't want to breed her until after she's been shown, yet she supposedly has a full tail, which means she can't be shown-you haven't started her in any conformation classes, you can't tell us anything about her lines or her parents lines. Oh and you posted a picture of a dog with a full tail that you downloaded off another website and it's clearly not the same dog as your profile picture. So, what gives??? Why can't you get your story straight?? How old is your dog? Is it a male or a female? How much does it weigh? Who was your breeder? What city and state is the breeder in? Does your dog have a docked tail or not? Do your dog a favor and have her spayed. |

my dogs name kari 1 year old not docked tail female breeders are my old show partners when we had roni I really think it would be god to spay her cause when you think about it too many risks and tons of money I also have another one but shes from a shelter her name is alta she is 4 years of age though |
Quote:
Is she 1 year or 10 months old? You've said both ages and we are all confused. Your breeders name???? Show partners??? If you had show partners, you would know you can't show AKC dogs with a full tail so your whole "I wanna show her and breed her later" story is not standing up.... |

my old dog roni had a tail docked and pointed ears |
I guess you aren't understanding. Show partners mean you and someone else showing a dog. In order to show a dog, you would know 1. The breed standard, meaning tails, ears, size, weight, temperament, etc. And 2. That your dog needs to be already in conformation classes and already in the ring at 10 months/ 1 year of age. If you had a previous dog that you showed, you would know about heat cycles.... Your stories and posts aren't adding up and because of other people who come on here and start drama, we regular members pick up on things that don't add up and begin to question it.....we're just asking you to explain so we understand. |
