| Old Yorkie doesn't like new Yorkie..... We have a new 8 week old Yorkie Puppy that was added to our family on Christmas. Our older Yorkie doesn't want anything to do with her. Anytime the puppy comes around our older one runs away. The puppy wants to play with her, yet she will have nothing to do with her. Any suggestions? I want them to love each other ..... Thanks! |

| you need to give them time to get used to each other. Make sure your older yorkie still feels loved. If she has a favorite toy or treat only give it to her when the puppy is around. Make good things happen when the puppy is near so she associates good things with the puppy. Often older dogs do not really have patience for rambunctious pups. It took about 6 months when I introduced a puppy before my older dog would even play with her at all.

| Give it more time.... careful not to ignore the older one.... he still needs lots of affection. |
