Default One of many questions...

Okay. So here's the first round of questions that I have about having two puppies!! There will probably be many more, but I've never had two young dogs before. I hope you all don't mind.

For those that have two or have ever had two yorkies, is this normal for the pups to be doing?

Yogie is 4 1/2 months and Dixie is a little over two months. When Dixie is on the floor, Yogi will run up and stand over top of her. He'll just stand there over her, until she gets mad and snaps at him. What do you think is going on with this? Is it some sort of dominance thing that he is doing? Should I continue to let him do this? She seems to get quite upset, because he does it so much. Should I stop him when he does this?

Also, this morning, I think they are playing but they have their teeth bared and are nipping at each other. Both tails are wagging, well, they're wagging most of the time. Is this how they play? I"m so worried that he is going to hurt her. He gets her paws in his mouth, he doesn't bite down on them, she easily pulls her paws out of his mouth, but I don't want him to hurt her. I just am not used to seeing Yogi's teeth bared and she's doing the same thing.

Any help would be great!
