| Getting an addition to the family I am so excited I can't help myself. I got a rehome male yorkie (Cody) last December. He will be 7 in November. The breeder I got him from called me and said that they had a litter of 3 girls and would I like to get Cody a playmate. the girls are 2 weeks old right now. I've been so excited that I have already thought of a name for her. Now for reality...do you think I will have a hard time getting Cody to adjust to her? I love him so much that I would never want him to feel left out. He is housebroken and has the run of the house. Of course I will have to have the puppy gated in the bathroom with her crate/pee pad, etc. Do you think I am taking on too much? I haven't had a puppy in 16 years. I'm not sure I will know what to do. I guess I'm posting here for reassurance from all of you that it will work. Sorry for the long post. |

| I don't even have one yet but I want to congratulate you on your new little girl! I had similar concerns about my cats but everyone here reassured me and said they'd be fine. I have little doubt that the same would apply to Cody. Possibly after a short adjustment period...

| Boys and Girls get along great. The only issue would be the age difference, he may not want to play |

Donating YT 500 Club Member | I am sure things will work out just fine! You will make the right decision. From previous post, it seems that adding another yorkie is easier than we think. Congrats on the new puppy!

| Having a puppy in the house is just like riding a bike. . . once you've learned how to do it, you never forget!!! You'll do great!!! I think as long as you give Cody tons of attention too he will be great! At 7 it is a big age difference, but I'm sure she'll win him over Congratulations!!!!
