One stinker and one angel..need advice on boundaries??
 

Does anyone else have one stinker and one angel yorkie??? We have had Samson since July 09 and oh how easy has it been raising him, he potty trained well, he hardly ever barks, he is very passive, doesn’t really get into that much…..Then there is Harley (we have had him since late Jan), he is so vocal, growls at everyone and everything, into EVERYTHING, doesn’t really understand the whole potty training thing, attacks his brother over everything and in general just pushes everything just a bit to far. I really cannot believe how different their personalities are and I swear Harley is extra cute to make up for being such a stinker. :rolleyes:

Does anyone have advice on how to help Harley learn his boundaries with Samson? He just attacks him for no reason and takes everything away, and he plays dirty because he always goes for Samson’s ears and hind legs. Samson usually just takes it but gives me that look like “mom really can’t you do something about him?”. I do redirect Harley but he is tenacious!! There are days I think it gets better and then days it is worse. They do get along sometimes, like when Harley is passed out asleep (other times too).

You as mommy need to intervene with his behaviors. When he's getting to rough make a loud noise and separate them. Stay on it!!! We just added Milo and he is so sweet and loving and Chloe seems to like to bully him. She is so jealous. When any of my other pups come into the room she goes into attack mode. I pick her up and tell her no and then make her sniff their butt. I saw this on the Dog Whisperer and it does help. She is starting to get it.;)
Hope this helps!
