Oh that is funny but just get used to it. In my house whatever one has the other wants. Thats chew bones and toys.

I would love to have another yorkie, but my husband won't let me. He says that Kobe is so spoiled that he would not like it. He always thinks the age difference would be too big.

Skittles and Gunner have a love hate realtionship. Gunner has only been with us since Oct, so I know it will take some time, ok maybe yrs before they are best buds. When Skittles shows signs of having enough with Gunner I let her rome the rest of the house. Gunner stays hemmed up in the kitchen and family room unless my hubby is home. We play with them together and also take 1 on 1 time with each of them, so they know we love them the same.

I say just give it time and they will both be best buds. Good luck

HAVE FUN GLAD !! you're in for some laughs with 2 yorkies in the house

Boy does this sound just like my house- Sophie ( who has been seen with up to 4 toys in her mouth ) only wants a toy if another gets it first, then the chase is on, around the furniture and thur the house. She has the advantage as Star is in her last week of pregnancy and doesn't move as fast right now and Sara and Fancy think Sophies game is silly.

Of course then Eli and Spencer have to join in and it all starts again, until I need some sanity and take whatever toy they are constantly squeaking away.

Of course that only lasts till one makes a trip to the toy box

And the thievery isn't just limited to toys, either!! If its on the floor-it's theirs!! Heck-if it's within their REACH it's theirs!!!

Dublin loves to steal my reading glasses! When I can't find them I know that he's taken them into his sister cage (why not his own

) and added a few more tooth marks!

You guys are the BEST!

Miko is such a lil thief! That has became his name recently. He is an only pup however, so he stills Mommy's things.....pens, bottles(20oz which is hilarious bc he is soo small), tissues, and ANYTHING SHINEY!!! After I get it back and we are done playing(at least he thinks we were playing) all I can do is laugh!

Hey there, friend! It sounds to me like the "honeymoon" is over!

Our two are exactly what everyone else is describing. One has it - the other one wants it.

At first, we let them play to whatever extent it ended up to be. But then we had to start curtailing it to: "Kiss Kiss - No bite!" It got a little ferocious.

When we discovered that Muffie has all these loose teeth in the front, we began wondering if their "roughness" with the mouths could have caused the teeth loosening! ?? We'll never know, will we?

Now, we're trying to "tame" them down!

When it comes to toys of any sort if Lowie (our girl) has it, brand, make or model doesn't matter (lol), Chowie (our boy) HAS to have it. It cracks us up b/c he will totally be engrossed in something else but as soon as she has it he wants in on the action... lol

I just think it's part of play, not being left out, and their rank in the pack.

troubletb · 01-25-2006, 02:16 PM

Oh Glad that sounds like my house, and mine do rip things apart!! But when ever its Lilly that has the toy or goodie, Petey sits there and crys!! Its very annoying!! I'm hoping they will grow out of it and I hope your two will too! Sorry I wasn't any help!!
