| Bringing a new yorkie home to meet my current yorkie! HELP! I have a three year old yorkie named Burke, and my boyfriend got me a new little girl for Christmas. Burke wants nothing to do with her and ignores her, but now has started getting really jealous and mean with her. She is so much smaller than her, and I don't want Burke to be upset. What is the best way to help him with this transition? She LOVES him, but he has even snapped at her a couple times. PLEASE HELP! |

| It will take probably a week or so for them to adjust. Just make sure they are closely monitored for now. Keep them separated when you aren't around. They will become the best of friends. When we brought Bear home Mindy actually had the diarhhea for a few days and definitely didn't want anything to do with him but now they are the best of buds. Good luck!!

| Welcome to YT. I'd try giving some extra attention to the baby you had first. It's going to take some time for them to get use to each other, because your little one is trying to get use to her new environment, and your older baby is trying to adjust to having to share the attention. I would monitor them when they're together until you see that they get along. Maybe try to engage them in playing with some toys. Hope this helps.
