Default Pippa is finicky eater, Scout is cashing in..

Ok, is there any such thing as a puppy getting too fat? Our one year old Yorkie, Pippa is a finicky eater and rarely finishes her "wet food" meals (a.m and p.m-kibble out all day). Our new little one, Scout, who is 12 weeks old likes to eat. He finishes all of his wet food, plus Pippa's leftovers. He eats quite a bit of kibble during the day-I was used to Pippa's small appetite, and would only put amounts she would eat out. Scout eats it all by lunchtime. He's looking like a little round butterball. Do I need to try and limit his diet, or just let him eat? I hate to penalize Pippa by not putting out as much kibble, if she gets the hankerin', I want her to eat! Scout is having lots of poops (of course, little piggy) but is not throwing up or anything I would expect if he's overeating-besides his recent chubbiness. What do you guys think?
