We have friends with a smaller Yorkie, (6lbs), Crystal loves playing with her, but sometimes 'rough - houses' to victory in play sessions. Not only is the smaller partner in these exchanges quick witted and very clever in the tackles, but successfully avails refuge from 'safe' spaces, where she views the 'bruiser' with superiority from her elevated status! At 4lbs and 7" however the 'parti' girl may need close invigilation to start off with, so we are going to separate them at night (Crystal in my wife's room and the small one with me). Therefore if she sleeps on the bed, I'm a passive sleeper and don't move much, so her diminished structure will not threatened as she settles in. That's the plan anyway! |
