You have had lots of good advice so far. Please take it to heart. A good trainer will also show you how to exercise your growing dog safely.

I like Building the Canine Athlete by M Christine Zink DVM Phd

You are going to need to become very alert and aware - as the situation you have created for yourself puts your Yorkies at risk.

Quite frankly I have never allowed my Yorkie to play with the my big dogs. When my Yorkie was a puppy and I had a female BRT puppy, their time together unleashed was very short and always Supervised. She was never allowed out in the yard with my Yorkie as she was too young and had too hgh a prey drive to be trusted. She was over 2yrs old before they were allowed in the same room not closely supervised.
The only activity all three dogs do together and that would be with two adults present is water work. Mainly fetch and retrieve and dock jumping.

And yes that meant crate and rotate for 2yrs.

Good luck with your new puppy and I hope that things go well for you.
