What else can I say but what has not been said already. The deed is already done - if it took! Now it is up to you how to whelp and just as importantly how to raise well adjusted puppies.

You need to know the timing of the correct neuro stimulation and physical stimulation of the pups - these go hand in hand.

You need to know albeitedly how mayhap it is belated all the health concerns of Yorkies - as I am pretty sure you did not do pedigree and health research ahead of time.

A browse through our Sick and Emergency forum will bring up a whole lot of things

Let me start with the top contenders

LP - rife within this breed - surgery to correct this is at least $1500 or up

LCP - on the rise and the surgery is probably more expensive than LP

LS - very concerning and pretty prevalent - has your gal been BATS tested? A liver shunt is at least $1500 to correct or more
MVD can be medically managed but needs to be ddx;d

Cataracts and PRA has your gal been to an opthamologist to see if she is at least clear of either one of these genetic conditions?

And there are many more health concerns about 20-22 in the Yorkie breed.

What health guarantee are you going to offer your puppy owners? Do you have the funds to offset a purchasers outlay for anyone of the above conditions?

And finally breeding a gal cause you think she wants to experience motherhood is quite frankly wrong headed thinking. I can tell you none of my gals told me they wanted to experience motherhood and at least one of my gals showed me she should never be a mother of anything!

No, she has a vet check up on tuesday. Ive talked to the breeder and she said she could be only carrying one pup but i rather have a vet check her out to make sure that i am doing all the responsible steps and actions correctly. Thanks for asking
