Do you have to wait to breed her again for how long?
I agree with labman about breeding only once a year. And, with all the other stuff he stated. Please understand the we here on this forum are advocates for spay/neuter and really are uncomfortable when we hear these kinds of questions. Especially when it is apparent that a poster has not researched breeding thoroughly prior to breeding, and the ramifications to your pets overall health from breeding.
I am not sure what the reasoning is behind asking these questions. It is important to the answer. Does it stem from the concern as to the value of the puppies? If your yorkie has papers in place, do you think that you will be able to charge more? Or is it about advertising purebred puppies and transferring paperwork to a prospective buyer? Frankly, I am quite confused here.
Mcgrand, did you buy your yorkie from a pet store? If you did, then breeding with papers or not, really doesn't matter. Pet store puppies are usually either rejects from the good breeders, or bought from puppy mills whose sole objective is to churn out as many puppies as possible and make a quick buck. Puppy mills don't care about quality breeding. Quality breeders will not sell the puppies that are show material to a pet store.
So, I guess if you are breeding your dog and your concerns are centered around the dog being "spoiled" because an unregistered male bred with your dog, that does not even enter into the equation. If you intend to breed her with a registered male and are worried about how much money you can make off the puppies, we can't really help you here. I am very sorry. If your intentions are not that, please be a bit more specific with your questions or state what exactly your concern is, and we will try to help you as best as we can.
