Question
I have a 8 lb male yorkie and 5-6 pound female yorkie. can i breed them together....

Answer
Absolutely not.  Under no circumstances can you mate these two dogs.  You never mate a female with a larger male.  The risk of complications is too high.  While you may be able to breed them and have no problems, that is more unlikely than having problems.  You need to find a stud that is 4 pounds or less to breed her with.  The smaller the better.
