My Shih tzu has shorter legs then Suzi and her hair is more of a cotton coat then Suzi, Suzi has a silk coat with longer legs and is taller.
Anyway they are a great match . However, They do get in fights over bones .... Because Suzi tries stealing them away , and Miely gets peeved. Miey , has more of an attitude , however, they have never physically hurt each other.
Bottom line is is awesome have 2 furbutts ! However the first 4-5 months you need to be very, very careful have the new baby arond the older one , just take extra caution , because the new pup is just more vulnerable and fragile. Your older yorkie , you do not want thinking that she is a toy . I brought my Shih Tzu home she could fit in my hand .
Just be very careful, like you would do anyway with a brand new puppy. |
Thanks for the advice.
I have an older mini schnauzer, Fancy. She does very well with Rily, but she doesn't feel like playing...she mostly sleeps because she has liver problems. Rily is only 6.5 pounds, but loves to play. The puppy will be supervised at all times and will not have full run of the house until she is bigger.
I'm a very over-protective mother....just ask my daughter!
