Default silly dog to excited for my yorkie puppy

This may seem like an odd question, so please bare with me. I have a 5 1/2 month old, 2.8lb yorkie boy, Alastor, who is a very calm boy. I also have a great (and very, very, very happy and healthy) 1yr old 9lb Brussels Griffon named Godric who has cerebellar hypoplasia. The problem I am having is that Godric LOVES Alastor so much but can't control his body's movements very well and keeps smacking Alastor so hard that he knocks him over. Alastor seems to understand that it's not his fault and just gets up and gives Godric kisses, but I am just worried that my strong, silly Godric is going to hurt tiny Alastor. I know I can't really train Godric to NOT do this because he has no idea where he is in space, and DON'T want to keep them separated because they adore each other, but with Godric bowling Alastor over all the time I'm worried he will get seriously hurt. Does anyone have ideas or experience with something like this? Any ideas will be greatly appreciated, Sarah

ps. this is a video of a cat with Godric's problem which gives great info on CH. Please watch it


pps. this is godric:
