I know what you are going through. My Yorkie pup was constantly badgering my 14 year old Maltese. It was a constant effort to keep them apart so that my senior could have some peace.

Jezebel is a very friendly, confident, and persistent (a terrier thing, yes?) pup. She loves all people, but she literally craves being with other dogs. I would take her on walks and to the dog park to let her expend some energy and be with other dogs that wanted to play, but it wasn't enough.

I found out about another Yorkie that needed to be rehomed, his owners had no time for him (worked long hours) and he was lonely. Just like her, he was oversized and they had both just turned a year old. I took her to visit him to see if they would be a good fit, and they loved each other, so I brought him home. The have a blast playing together, and they rarely even acknowledge my senior. She can now lounge around in peace again.

So you keep them separated until she outgrows puppyhood, or find an outlet for her.
