|  I have multiples. What I will say is that if there is a squabble in my home it is always either two females or two males. I never have any issues at all with opposites.

I really didn't understand how good it is for one, to have the opposite (sex) companion. Since I realized that, I have always made any addition to My "Pack", like this... Same Breed, Opposite Sex, The new Dog about 2 years younger than the Resident. Note: Age separation will assist in promoting/maintaining the Resident's status within your household, and be a reasonable "space", in later years, when the oldest approaches the Bridge... Also, if/when you do add, be sure to give a LOT of attention to the resident animal, overdo it in fact. Many resident animals really suffer psychologically when they think they are being replaced in your heart, with another.

| YT 500 Club Member  |  I have a now 7 year old boy And one year old girl. 10 weeks when I got her. My boy hated her at first, figured she wasn't visiting and not leaving. So it took about a month for him to get use to her and now they're always together. Although for her tiny size compared to him, she's bossy and fiesty. Basically the boss! Lol

| I actually have 4 yorkies two females (sisters) and two males (not related) and the biggest female is the leader of the pack (also the instigator) and my smallest male is the "leader of the boys" they are amazing to have! you learn new things with them every day their favorite thing to do right now is harass my sheltie (shes 12) and she is still getting used to them. They each have their own cushion on the couch but all end up cuddling together when your asleep with them. |

| We have a 4 year old morkie female and a 1 year old yorkie male. They are great together and i think my morkie is happier now that she has a little companion |

| Donating YT 1000 Club Member  | Sounds like you've gotten LOTS of advice I have a male & a female. My male came 1st but we've never had any issues at all from day 1. Welcome to YT!

| Although I prefer females I think a male & female make the happiest pair. I had to move one of my girls, Bella, upstairs because she started fighting with Sophie seriously. My daughter lives upstairs and Bella gets along great with Bailey, her male even though he picks at her.

| I have a male and female that are a month apart. My only problem is fighting over toys and jealous of me. The female usually starts it. They play together but sure do get into some serious fighting! I have to pull them apart. I hate they do that. The female is smaller but she sure takes over him! |
