| when bringing home... A second yorkie puppy what is the best way to handle this. Do I introduce them to each other right away or give the new puppy time to get used the new surroundings first. |

After about half an hour bring your first yorkie into a none territorial room such as a living room (do not introduce them near food bowels, beds, toys). When introducing them make sure both dogs are on the ground at equal levels and not in anyones arms or higher up then the other because they will see this as statis (dominance). Be close to them incase anything goes wrong you can scoop one up right away. Do not force them on eachother. It may take time for them to warm up to each other or they could be good friends right away. Make sure to give your first Yorkie a little more attention at first so he knows everything is alright and he has no need to be jelous or mean to the puppy. Other then that, it's a lot of fun having two. We want to see pics Good luck!
