| New name ? Hi all. Piccolo has a new friend. After listening to your advice I bought a 9 m old girl. aher name is Annie but I'm not very crazy about her name. Do you think I can change it or is it too late? Looking at her pictures what's your suggestions she looks like ? I mean what name will suit her best ?

| I would think that after 9months that would be too long to change it but who knows. I like the name Annie that was my Chloes mamas name!

| If you really are not wanting to keep her first name, then how about Angie? The sound would be similar. She sure is a beautiful girl. |

Banning Thread Dictator Donating Member | Very cute pup! How are they getting along? Don't worry if there's an occasional spat. They'll work things out. Eddie was originally Teddy, and Jack was originally Cuddles, and we had no problem changing names. Eddie was just a pup, but Jack was 10 when we changed his. We called him Jack-Cuddles for a while and then dropped the Cuddles. My only complaint is I want to teach you how to focus your camera! You're focused on the chair in the background. What kind of camera is it? Digital? What brand, model number? I'll look it up and see if I can help.

That's exactly what I was thinking about. I like Angel and I can call her Angie. Thank you for your input.

We called him Jack-Cuddles for a while and then dropped the Cuddles. I'm very worried. They don't get along at all ! Piccolo (13 m) was mad at me when I brought Annie ( 9 m). He snapped at her and I think he was bitting her in not a playful manner at all. She wanted to play with him since she came from home of 7 breeder's yorkies ranging from a few weeks old to 4 y old. She is a toyhog and all the toys belonged to Piccolo, though I bought 2 new toys for her. Yesterday and today - all I'm doing is seperating them because I'm not sure if all this fighting is serious or not. I called the breeder and she said she would take her back if they continue fighting like that. She gave me a week. I'm not sure if it's enough time or not. It was very nice of her since she already mailed registration papers. I am already madly in love with her and don't know what to do...

* If the fights are not serious -- no blood, no one gets hurt -- let them work it out on their own. Hopefully, Piccolo will allow her to play with some toys of her own. * If you do break up a fight, don't scold one and baby the other. Just break it up and take away all toys for a while. Stay calm. * If the fights are over toys, you should take control of the toys. Put them away at night, give them to them the next day. Good luck.

| [QUOTE=alaskayorkie;914110][QUOTE=Piccolo's mom;914091] Yeah, I would say a week is not going to be enough time. I'm no expert, because Eddie still occasionally beats up Jack, but here are a few things to try: * If the fights are not serious -- no blood, no one gets hurt -- let them work it out on their own. Hopefully, Piccolo will allow her to play with some toys of her own. * If you do break up a fight, don't scold one and baby the other. Just break it up and take away all toys for a while.

That's exactly what I was doing - scolding Piccolo, telling him he was a very bad boy and pumpering Annie. No blood shed so far and nobody got hurt but I am freaking out that it would happen. Annie steals ALL the toys and guards them with her life ! I packed them in a bag an hour ago and will take out one at a time tomorrow. Thank you for your input.

| Oh my goodness, our little yorkies are so much like preschoolers aren't they?..lol...I like the name Annie, I think it is sweet...but whatever you start calling her she will respond to.... I am bringing home another puppy in a few weeks and I am a bit worried about them getting along, but the breeder, my vet and friends I have talked to says it can takes a few days to a couple of weeks for them to form a relationship. Good Luck, they are both adorable!

If anything, you're supposed to make the real No. 2 (the one who wins the fights) feel special. Special treats. Special mom time. The first to get a hello when you come home. If they feel secure in their position in the pack, they will see no need to fight to establish it. It can be difficult to do, but No. 3 will appreciate you in the long run if the beatings stop. At least that's what the books say!

She looks sweet but she starts the fights and a few times Piccolo turned on his back in a submitive position. I felt sooo sorry for him. well, I just observe them and see what happens.
