The best advice is to trust your instincts. If it looks like it's getting too rough, put a stop to it. Don't wait for one of them to get hurt.
Do you keep them separated when you can't supervise? How old are Baxter and Snickers?

When my boys are not supervised, I put the smaller one in the xpen for safety. They are happy with each other, but they get out of hand wrestling. The younger one always starts the biting.
