| I just got a pup a couple weeks ago. Start by introducing them in neutral territory. Then gradually let them sniff and play together but supervise it the whole time. Good luck |

| Sophie was scared to death of Lancelot when I brought him home a couple weeks ago. Sophie is 3.2lbs and Lancelot is 1.2lbs. Now she has figured out she is bigger and is pushing him around. They will adjust to each other, just give them time. |

| Definitely introduce them on neutral ground if you're worried about your other one accepting the new yorkie. See how they interact, and if the older one is nice, give her a treat. Good luck!!

| The good thing is that they will be relatively the same size, so there is not too much potential for one to hurt the other. It was difficult for me to introduce my dogs to Wobie, because the smallest one was 30 times his size!

| Princess is the nicest dog ever. All she is gonna do probably is ignore the new one. But, does that end? Will she eventually acknowledge Peanut? |

| Lili is still anxious I have had Lili since she was 8 weeks old. She is now 14 mos old. She has been our little princess. She has always been very playful. I thought she would love to have a buddy to play with. She has been playing a little with Daisi but, loses interest easily.But, Daisi does not give up very easily.
