WHAT YOU MEAN A YORKIE ISNT AS BIG AS A GERMAN SHEPHERD!!!!

Dont tell my boy Jake that lol he truly believes he is that size and can take on anything!!!

But I think you will be fine your right to introduce them as puppies. My friend got a huge labrador pup the same week I got Jake as a baby and they are best of pals. We let them play from the start just had words with them when it got a bit boisterous. But the lab was gentle even when he got the upper hand and pinned jake down in the wrestling they did he leaned on his elbow so his paw was over jake but no weight was on him it was super cute. He did stand on jake now and then or trip over him and jake would yelp but it never bothered jake at all. They still play now and Jake is definately the boss if the play gets to rough Jake will nip Hugos nose and give him a bark and hugo will instantly lay down and look sheepish and sorry till jake cuddles up against his belly and they go to sleep.

Yorkies are tough and boisterous and he will let the german shepherd know when play is to much or to rough, just keep and eye on them and check them for play that is to rough and they will be fine.
