11 weeks..LOL Rocky sounds normal. He did not mean to bite you..you happened to get your hands in the way. He did mean to "attack" the Lab, that is what Yorkies tend to do..they have no concept of their size and go after huge dogs. I had a male attack my brothers collie. I looked out the back window and this poor collie was walking around the yard with a 4 pound Yorkie hanging from his neck. I had to pry Gus's teeth out of his neck.

Right now I have 4 girls...two are 15 weeks and two are 5 months. We call them "Pit Yorkies"..and the one pounder is the worst of the bunch.

Lucy's mom..I would keep them apart unless you can watch them closely. Pups can be pests..even my adult Yorkies will take only so many bites on the legs or ears, then growl at them. I always have a day bed or couch in the doggy area so the adults can get away from the kids.
