I can answer any questions regarding breeding, potty training, grooming and general health questions. I can tell you what to look for when purchasing a Yorkie to ensure you buy the pet you desire.
Experience
Experience in the area: I have been breeding Yorkshire Terriers for over 20 years. I have had experience with c-sections, how to revive dead puppies, handling birthing complications and what you should and should not do when breeding. Publications: I have written a book entitled "Yorkshire Terriers - A Common Sense Guide To Breeding and Everything Else". The book is available on my website, www.petremembrances.com/Yorkie%20Advise.html as a downloadable PDF
Education/Credentials: My experience with breeding Yorkshire Terriers and having them as pets for over 20 years has taught me a lot. The mistakes I have made can be put to good use because I can pass the information on to others and help them not to make the same mistakes.
Question I have two Yorkies Puppies that will not feed from mom and I have to feed them
on my own - can anyone tell me how long I have to do that?
Answer Gabriela,
It depends on how old they are. They can usually start eating on their own at about four weeks of age. You can mix warm milk with some Gerber baby cereal, rice works best. At first make it very sloppy and as the puppies get older you can make it thicker. You can try feeding them at three weeks but you will have to watch very carefully to make sure that they are getting enough to eat. You also have to be careful that they don't fall asleep with their face in the food bowl because they could drown in it.
As always the best thing to do is to contact your vet so that he can monitor the puppies.
