I am going to soon find myself in your situation and I am terrified. I have 2 toy poodles and 1 yorkie. The yorkie is 2.5 years old and weighs 4 pounds. I got her last. She has taken over. She is the alpha dog. She sees a poodle with a chew stick ,and she whines ,and they give it to her. Same with toys, food and beds. She knows she's the baby. This July I get a 3 month old female yorkie. My concern is for her to remain happy and alpha dog. I don't want her to feel replaced. I don't want her to feel hurt. She is not like a dog to me. The poodles are, but not her. She acts like my child. I have no advice for you other than Baby and fuss over Mickey more than the newbie. I truly feel for you and understand where you are coming from.
