Question
i found my 9month female old yorkie stuck together with my 21month old male yorkie is she going to end up pregnant? is she to young? will it kill her?

Answer
Hi Neshawn

The first heat is young to breed a female, although little dogs mature quicker than larger breeds.

There is a very good chance she took. It may not kill her, but she may not be mentally and physically mature to handle rearing a litter. So you need to be prepared for that. Establish a good relationship with your vet and discuss the pro's and con's of your female.

You want to keep her weight even, do not let her gain a lot of weight and DO NOT put her on puppy food. Instead use a high quality (Solid Gold, Timberwolf) dog food.

Good luck.
