This is my first post on the site I'm hoping to get some great advice! Let me star by saying I have a 1 year old Yorkie that has been such a easier and a breeze to train. We were so happy with her we decided to get another Yorkie puppy a year later from the same breeder and same parents. We have had our new puppy Lucy now for about a month. Since bringing her home my older Yorkie "Sophie" has changed completely. She will not come to me and will only sit with me if I have the puppy all she wants to do is play with the puppy. The puppy also only wants to play with Sophie. I am afraid I a loosing important bonding time with the new puppy as well as loosing the older Yorkie that used to be such a cuddle Yorkie. Any advice would be great I really don't want to give up!!!!
