| Soon-to-be Yorkie mommy! Hi everyone! We are going to be welcoming a new baby into our family next weekend and I just couldn't be more excited! We have a 6-month old Maltese puppy, Sophie, now and she is a joy. My fiance surprised me by asking me if I wanted another dog, and knowing that I was between a Yorkie and a Maltese when we got Sophie, we opted for a Yorkie! We think that it will be wonderful to have them close in age, so (hopefully) they will be best friends. Sophie has been socialized, through Puppy Classes and Doggy Day Care and wants to be everyone's friend so we are hopeful that she and the new puppy will get along well. I have never had a Yorkie but I have only heard wonderful things making me want one even more. Any and all advice and suggestions are welcome so that I can make the transition to our puppy's new home as easy as possible for her. Thanks! |

| When my friend 1st got her Malt boy puppy, her girl Yorkie got very jealous...but they're inseparable now! Plus, the girl was a little older, so I don't think you'll have any problems. Congrats to your new addition!

| From my experience with my Mom's Maltese their personality tends to be much more towards loving everyone and killing you with kindness. My Mom's Maltese will roll over on her side to try to get any baby animal to nurse on her, kittens and puppies. It is pretty funny and cute, and she hasn't ever had babies either... As far as introducing new puppies as a whole I didn't do a very good job when I got a second puppy when my oldest was about 2. She was a little jealous at first and just when I thought things were getting better she became extremely aggressive. But I really could never see a Maltese doing that, it was very terrier(terror) behavior. My mom also just got another new Maltese and the older one (about 4 I think) shows her jealousy by licking my mom a ton or just slowly getting between them. Just make sure that you give the older Maltese lots of love too. Good luck with two babies "in diapers" lol.
