| How hard is too hard?? Violet and Francie are sisters and are 13 weeks old. Violet lives with me and Francie lives with my parents, a couple miles away. We get them together most evenings to "play". They go WILD together! It almost seems like they are hurting each other with their "nips", "barks", etc... they do play pretty rough! How do I know if they are playing "nice" or getting too rough? Also, it seems like they will go solid for hours if we let them, so we force "rest periods" every 1/2 hour or so... we separate them to give them a break. Is this necessary? We are 1st time yorkie owners, so don't know what's normal and what isn't! Thanks so much guys!! Cheryl

Yorkie Kisses are the Best! Donating Member | I'd think if they're play fighting only - they're just being puppies and let them have a ball - it's the real fighting you'd need to stop ...but it sounds like they're having big fun and I wouldn't worry too much I wonder why puppies have SO much energy at night - mine did and still do - and they're 5 and 3 |

| Hi Cheryl, Sounds like they really enjoy their play dates, you'd know if they were hurting each other. My two older ones sound vicious at times when they are playing with the snarling and growling but it's all in fun. With your two being so young you may want to continue the short breaks and maybe offer a snack to keep their blood sugar up. Have fun!
