Talk to your vet about what he/she thinks you should do. Just make sure you male is smaller than her female because you dont want her female to have complications and possibly have a c section or lose the litter. Just talk to your vet and see what he/she recommends. Good luck
Oh and dont get discouraged by other people's postings. They judge way too quickly and dont want the competition themselves if they are breeders. So if you are willing to do it and do it responsibly go for it.

THE FEMALE IS TOO YOUNG!!! I wait until mine are at least three years. Dont be stupid girl. If you dont know the answer to this question then you both shouldn't breed.
Do you have money for health tests? Save money for an emergency C-Section? Do you show your pom? Can you register the puppies? Puppy chow is pricey! All these things cost lots of money, more then you will get for the puppies.
When you breed dogs you NEVER make money if you do it properly. DONT DO IT UNTIL YOU RESEARCH!! I would a suggest a book called Canine Reproduction.

Hers sure is. No female should be bred until she's at least two.
Your male is capable of siring pups, however I bet he hasn't been OFAd, CERFed, or checked for patellar luxation. You need to have those things done first. OFA can't be done until the dog is two.
Neither of you should even be thinking about breeding until you've done a LOT more research.

Not technically but yes your dog is a little to young to breed it has to be at least 10 months!
