I was a nervous wreck when I brought my 3 lb 12 week old Yorkie home to meet my 70 lb Basset Hound! At first we let them play under very close supervision. Once the newness and excitement wore off after a few days, the Basset started to settle down and the play wasn't as rough. My Yorkie is now 6 months and 5 lbs and I don't worry about them at all. They roughhouse all the time but the one who is always crying is the Basset because the Yorkie bites his long ears all the time! The Basset knows he is small and he never bites him during play, he mostly just nudges the Yorkie around with his snout. |
