Can more than 1 yorkie be raised in the same house? I've just got 2 7wk old yorkies. 2 males from the same litter. I've been on many websites and one particular one has scared me to death. Is it so impossible or difficult to raise two puppies together? Pls help! |
You can raise two together with no problems, well not to many.... |
I have 5! Life's a hoot! |
I have two that have had since they were puppies. I really didnt think it was that diffcult |
I have two, no problems. You just have to spend time with each of them. |
Thanks so much guys! By the way, just if you're interested, I'm not in the US, but in Mauritius! I've had my puppies since last Friday and they are so great! I guess the difficulty is potty training, and watching their health, diet, etc. But since Friday night we're learning a lot. Lots of things are coming by trial and error. Their second visit to the vet is in 1 month. Anyway I'll keep posted. |
I have 2 that are 3 months apart in age, they are a blast to have around!! 2 at the same time is double work, and it's a challenge, but once they passed the puppy stage, it only gets better!! |
Not impossible at all infact most members here have multiples! 7 weeks!!! whoa....be careful there...Thats really young and babies that young are very prone to hypoglycemia! Maybe you already know about it but wanted to throwit out there just encase so u can be prepared! Good luck with your boys and hope to see pics soon! |

Welcome To Yorkie Talk. There's alot of good people here & great information. Life is wonderful, you can do just about anything you want to. If you want to raise 2 beautiful boys together then just do it. Then you'll have the expierience of their lives to help others. You probably will need a lot of patience & love. Just when you think they'll never grow up....they do. Have fun!!!!!!! |
I've read about that. We are being very careful with their diet. Actually in Mauritius rice is mainly consumed, so what I'm doing is that I'm adding canned fish/tuna, ect in he rice and feeding them for dinner. For breakfast they are having milk and bread (soaked in the milk). The milk is very light coz the breeder said they could be taken off milk in the next couple of weeks. Pls advise coz I'm sure I must be doing something wrong... |
Nope I cannot say your doing a thing wrong at all! I didnt mean to scare you at all and with many mini meals throughout the day any signs of hypo can be eliminated. 1 of my yorkies had it and one didnt...I was not educated about it and turned into the toughest time of my life....To avoid hypo do not let them go more than 4 hours without something in their bellies....thats usually it! :) Maybe have nutrical on hand encase they just dont feel like eating to supplement :) Pretty easy huh?? Do you have pics of ur boys...we are all addicted to fur baby pictures! If you need help posting them let me know I will help. |

I'm raising two Yorkies, one Biewer and a poodle together. They do have their moments, but for the most part their fine. |
Well I have Yorkie fever!! I have a almost 7 month girl an almost 5 month boy and a 3 month boy and will be bringing home a 8 week girl chorkie soon I am not the one to tell you will be ok. Potty training is a full time good. But the joy of having that much love is worth all the work. |
