Oh, he sure is a cutie!

2 pounds is awfully small, though. Injuries are bound to happen in dogs that small. Sickness often happens too, you are going to have to constantly be worried about low blood sugar in a baby that small. If that's something you can emotionally and financially deal with, go for it! I always worry about yorkies that small being sold to the wrong people. SO many people want that tiny pet who will never grow more than 3 pounds, but yet they don't realize the risks and health issues that come along with it.

Is Maxwell typically gentle with other dogs? 6 pounds isn't a huge difference, but you would definitely have to watch them closely, especially at first. If you can't watch them, they'll need to be kept separate during that time, until you know for sure how Maxwell is with him. I am getting a 3 pound 12 week old on Friday, and my first purchase was an xpen for that reason - Oliver is 14 pounds, so there's a huge weight difference.

It's never too late to neuter. My Oliver wasn't neutered until he was 1.5 ish, when he was rescued from the puppymill. Marking can be an issue though if they weren't neutered before becoming sexually mature. Oliver is ok at home (now) but I can't take him anywhere else, he marks like crazy.

Hopefully that helps in your decision! As long as you're ready to deal with the "what if's" it sounds like you would give this sweet little boy a really good home, which at that size he so desperately needs.
