I agree that the pack mentality is what's happening. I have 12 yorkies and they get along fine 99% of the time but there are times when 2 of my girls get very aggressive with each other. What starts out as excitement can turn violent in a flash. My mentor told me once of leaving some of hers out to play. She went in for a few minutes and returned to find one ripped to shreds. Yorkies ARE dogs and terriers at that. Sometimes you just have to watch out and don't assume they're just sweeties all the time.
