I would just watch them together if you have a very small yorkie. Just make sure they are all well socialized and are not aggressive.

Im single, live alone and have 2 boys. I would LOVE a girl, but my goodness I couldn't possibly pet all those heads myself! My boys require constant attention from me and usually one hand is petting one head and the other hand petting the other head! hehe So I think Im going to have to hold off on getting another baby! But if you can handle that go for it!!! If I had someone else and they didnt care, Id have a girl too!!

Brooklynn how would i know if this new pup will be socialized and not agressive. The breeder think he will be fine and said to make sure you lay down the rules for all of them. She is on a farm and raises them. She seems good and honest. When you see the pup he going to be quiet and not himself when you first bring him hom. Now my oldest is Benji he does not do well when we bring a dog in our home butif we go to someone eles home he was fine. Lately we have had other family memeber bring their dog over and only one dog my daughter did he bite. benji a 5 pd bit a boxer full grown. the boxer was fine and didnt do anything but my daughter wont bring him over any more. now my brother came over had a really big dog and no proublem so I dont know

I don't mean to sound harsh, but I think bringing in a 3rd dog into your situation might not be the best idea. Poor Benji, thats his home and he does not like other dogs there. I think you'll have a hard time with him if you do get a 3rd dog. Im afriad that if Benji does not take to the Dobie puppy that you'll have to rehome him and that will hurt you for sure, and that poor pup.

Just think about it..... do you think your current circumstances allow for a 3rd dog?
Good Luck with your decision though... you are like me! I want to bring home every animal I see haha

I was thinking the same thing but when i came home with zip he felt that way and now they love each other. they even sleep together and I love it when they play. Benji didnt like it at first tho and every once in a while if he get jeslious he will dog him but never hurt him. A big decission
