| Yorkie Size! My female yorkie is pregnant. She weighed 9lbs before she became pregnant. The sire weighed 9lbs also. Will the pups be 9lbs as well? |

| Why did you breed? We kill over 2 million in shelters a year. Breeding should really be left to the reputable breeders.

| If you're not going to reply with an answer to my question then move along to the next thread. I took all the proper precautions when I bred my girl. I bred her because I wanted to. So if I choose to sell her puppies which I'm not that is my business. Nice try though, Thanks. |

| It's very dangerous on your female to breed and not have a mentor. Your mentor would teach you stuff like this. This is seriously something you should know before breeding. You can not just put to dogs together. The genes play a big part in determineing the size the puppies will be that's why you need to know the genes before breeding because what if in the males genes they have very large puppies then your female may need a csectionwhich is exspensive, the anesthesia can be rough on the puppies and the mom might not take the puppies. A mentor would have also told you the male should be smaller then the female.

| I love your dog's name btw. My oldest yorkie's name is Callie & I work at the shelter so I know first hand how many dogs are being put down. I have to have hypoallergenic dogs. Sorry about the snappiness but I felt you were sort of disrespectful. So many people are left in the dark because experience breeders act like breeding is the worst thing in the world! Everyone has to start somewhere. & yes she has had a proper check up. My aunt breeds yorkies and gifted me her on my birthday 3 years ago. She sired her for me because I wanted another yorkie. She is in great health. My aunt has her grandmother(She is fixed now) The vet reminded me that just because she's a few pounds over standard doesn't mean anything. The standard is basically for shows and breeders who plan to make a profit. I am neither. |

| Dogs don't generally just have one puppy so breeding for just another one isn't really a good idea because you might get 6. It also can be very dangerous and risk your girls life. It's also expensive you have to at least have the dew claws removed at 3 days old and then 3 sets of puppy shots and if you keep them all hopefully spaying and neutering.

| She is having two. She has had an ultrasound. I'm keeping the male and my aunt is getting the girl. My aunt is removing the dew claws and my vet will be administering the shots. 🙃 |

| Like I said before as long as I follow the rules I can post here. You need to keep in mind other people will read this thread as it will pop up in searches and I want others to know how risky it is and everything. Breeding should never be taken lightly and I am a big fan of rescuing and reputable breeding. Not knowing what your doing puts your dog at risk. Like I said you should have known the answer before breeding.

| I would let her whelp at your aunts because there are small signs that mean your dog is in distress and you risk missing them if you haven't seen them before.

| Didn't think about it like that lol And I just got off the phone with my aunt and her boy was 6 3/4lbs. I thought he was 9. Guess that could've save some confusion. |
