[QUOTE=alaskayorkie;1285163]I found a Web site that has some good explanations of dog interaction. It's all interesting, but scroll down to Play and Play Invitations for the part you're interested in.

That's a good article. I still have trouble with trying to figure out the mounting/playing/fighting going on between my 10 year Shi Tzu and 5 month old Yorkie. It's hard not to humanize them too much and demand that the "play nice together" !!
