A lot of people will say the ideal mix for Yorkie pairs is a girl and a boy. Max and Teddy are two equally strong males and they love each other. Lots of examples of multiple girls on YT and Facebook who do very well with each other.
It really comes down to the individual dogs. |
I'm the youngest of 7 girls. So girls, girls, girls. But, I'm a major tomboy so I can sort of be counted as a boy. LOL
We added Zoey to our family little bit after 1 year old. My biggest fear was the two fighting and having to re-home one. Luckily, that didn't become an issue. They're not the best of friends but they have each others backs if needed.
I can't tell if Magnus puts up with Zoey's abuse b/c she's female or b/c she's family. But I've seen other younger dogs try the same thing and he will not have any of it.
IMH, if you have the time, energy, and the funds for another, GO FOR IT!!!!!
One of the things I did was take Magnus to go see Zoey with us when we went to pick her up. Let him sniff her and what not. He seemed indifferent so that was the green light for me. Once we brought her home, he was grooming her so much that she was soaked from head to tail. LOL Still, I did keep an eye on them for 2 weeks just in case.
