Wow, that is scary and is never acceptable. I had a similar but different situation. My Yorkie, Abbie, who I loved dearly and we had a special bond was cage and me aggressive towards my then 1 1/2yr old foster daughter. I would have to be on guard constantly. One day my FD went towards Abbie's crate and I didn't know Abbie was in there and my FD almost got bit. Long story short, plus still hard to think about, was I had to rehome my Abbie. She went with an older lady whos husband had recently died. I could not risk a Foster child being bitten as I could get sued big time and the committment to the FD was long term. As it was Abbie went to a wonderful home and I still get pictures and updates. She made the older women so happy. I'm not saying to rehome your Yorkie, but I am saying that you need to nip this now perhaps with a professional. It would be worth the investment as I'm sure you love them both. Good luck, I feel for you..
