I got a second yorkie because I wanted to give Cookie a playmate. For me it didnt work out great . Cookie never changed his personality. My second Yorkie Mimi does not like Cookie and often fights with him to the point of painful biting! We keep them seperated most of the day and only allow them to be together when we can supervise. I've had her for 4 months already and very little has changed. But I know this doesnt happen for everyone that gets a second dog.I love Mimi too and the only reason why I did not choose to give her up is because of my 8 yr old daughter who has become like her second mother! She loves Mimi to death and sleeps with her everynight. I still find myself looking through ads and pictures and I think Im nuts!lol I guess what I was looking for was another Cookie! I told myself that if all yorkies were like Cookie I would end up with 6 yorkies! From my experience the boy was the calm one that wanted to be cuddled all the time.But I hear of so many yorkie moms that say that their girl is the little cuddly one.I think getting a second yorkie is a great idea but you truly will never know how they will get along until both of them are living together for a couple of weeks or months...
