I would recommend starting to breed a Yorkshire around the age of 2, so their body can fully mature.
I would say that you shouldn't start breeding before 1 1/2 years old, any age before that is too young, and they need to mature, but after they do that, and have had at least 2 heats, and get used to it, then i would say its a good time to breed them.
By the 2nd heat or after.
Minimum of eight weeks old, they should be weaned by then.
A yorkie should stop growing around the age of 2 1/2 or around the age of 3!
On the book animal planet Yorkshire terrier said a healthy yorkie will romp and play for up to 15 years!!! Sometimes yorkies can live to 25 or more. The average is between ten and sixteen.
The absolute minimum age that you could breed your Bull Terrier is after she has had at least two seasons. She should breed perfectly fine on her third season or later, but the best age for breeding is three years of age.
A yorkies will carry for 62 - 64 days deending on the size of the litter and age of the dog
Yorkshire terriers are very small dogs. They are never to weigh more than 7 pounds. When I adopted my three-month-old male Yorkshire Terrier puppy, he was three pounds, and he was the largest one of the four-puppy litter. His mother was seven pounds and his father was five pounds. He is now more than four months old and weighs about five and a half pounds. He is a very healthy puppy and eats well. He is an "average" Yorkshire Terrier puppy at this age, just to give you an example. Ours varies between 4.1 and 4.5 lbs. I'm told that he is on the smaller end of the spectrum
My mother owned a female Yorkshire Terrier in Australia who lived until the age of 24. I'm not aware of any other Yorkies older than 24,and this was in human yearsBilly a Yorkshire Terrier is believed to be the oldest living dog in the world. He is a 22 years old canine , which is equivalent to 154 human years. The current holder of the title with the Guinness World Records is 21 year old kelpie cross Sako from Melbourne, Australia.
At the age of 2 for a Yorkshire terrier, is the best time for breeding, because they are mature, both physically, and emotionally.
I have a norfolk terrier its now 18 yrs old and going strong .Anyone ive asked on the age expectancy of this breed they say the average age is 12-13 yrs of age that's why i want to know what age the oldest living norfolk terrier dog was when it dyed
I'm sorry but female dogs are meant to be breed at the age of 2. i tried to breed my dog at the age of 5 and that i didn't work at all so 7 would defiantly NOT work at all.
