 Aggression?
First off, we have 3 yorkies already and absolutely love them. Two of them are below standard size, being about 2 and 2.5 lbs respectively and are over 1 year old. Neither are aggressive and they play wonderfully with each other and our bigger dogs.
We've recently found another little girl we're thinking of adopting into our family. She is 8 months old and weighs about the same as our smallest. She's at our local pet shop (they actually look into the places they get their puppies from) and has been adopted before. She was bought by a woman with 2 small children and returned because the woman didn't want to take care of her any more.
The pet shop is keeping her for a little while in order to update her shots and such since the woman didn't bother taking her to the vet. We went to the shop the other day and she was in with a little chiweenie and bichon. They were all playing together, but they started getting rough and she pinned the chiweenie to the floor and wouldn't let her get up.
I was wondering if this is a sign of aggression, and if I should be worried about bringing her home with my other yorkies. Its likely that she'll get to be as big, if not bigger, than the babies we already have and I don't want to subject our current dogs to aggressive behavior. Any help or insights would be highly appreciated. |
