Hello, my name is Sharon and I'm from Louisiana. My daughter's friend just gave her a 1yr old male Toy Yorkie, because she could not travel with him. My daughter is 20yr old and not a home body.
I will keep him, because he is adorable and so intelligent. I would like to breed him, but I'm not sure about what to do. Is there a certain website that I can look up to help answer all my questions. ??

Thanks

I'll start with a smile :) so you'll know I'm not trying to be mean or rude. You will find that many of the people on this forum can get into heated discussions over whether a pet should be bred or not. You will also find that many, if not all will tell you there is no such thing as a toy yorkie. That would be based on the AKC standards. A Yorkshire Terrier (aka yorkie) is already a member of the toy group. I can tell you that the American Kennel Club has a website at www.akc.org but I don't know whether or not the mods will allow it to stay or if they will have to edit it out. Breeding can be very expensive if done for the betterment of the breed.

I don't come here as much as I used to, but if you would like to pm me, I'll be glad to share my opinions. Here in the open forum I'm trying very hard to be Politically Correct.

This post by Patch is an excellent guideline to help determine if you should or should not get into breeding.
