Hi! I am new to Yorkie Talk and am having an issue with getting my two make siblings to do anything but wrestle with each other where the two of them have their mouths wide open and nibble on each other but do not bite hard. The problem is that my little guy charts at only 3 lbs when fully grown and his brother is nearer to 5 lbs already. I had to get separate crates and runs for them from the outset because the larger one would flop on the little one and knock him down incessantly. He was only 1.6 lbs then. This separation has given the wee one more confidence but I still cannot leave them unsupervised and together. Eventually I'd like them to have the run of the house and be together because they so play nicely for part of the time they are combined but it always flows back into this wrestling session with open mouths and snorting...lol

Anyone have any suggestions for a new Yorkie mama?
