I am one of the few who believe that some yorkies are just more aggressive. I have one in my Chewie. He is food aggressive and I worked that out by feeding them separately. But he will turn on my Cockapoo at the blink of the eye and for what I see as no apparent reason. It is not for dominance, he is definately the alpha and she lets him be. And it is not playful, he is trying to hurt her, yes, draw blood. I won't leave them together unattended and some times I am so fustrated I think of rehoming him. But I love him and I continue to work on his problems. It has been a problem since he was a puppy and he is now 16 months old. I could use some help, too.
