Hello, My name is Noel .. I have 2 yorkie sisters that have some serious issues!! They will be 2 in Febuary .. Ive had one since she was 8 weeks and took the other a couple of weeks later since no one wanted her ... so they have grown up together.. at first they were wonderful .. they played and sleep togetther .. then before i got them fixed the one started agression towards the other one .. One yorkie , princess Peanut, is smaller then her sister , Precious.. Precious is much taller and longer , and she is the agressive dominate one .. Precious is a very anxious dog.. everything excites her now .. the kids the tv other dogs walking down the street.. Espically US playing with Peanut! Peanut herself makes Precious anxious.. so much so that she will shoulder her constantly !! and if we do not see it in time its a full blown out dog fight......!! they have each drawn blood on each other .. Peanut will growl and precious will shoulder and jump her then peanut will not back down and its just not a good scene.. its more frequent then it was, but not all the time .. they sleep together they play together fine , its just when Precious gets anxious.. like i dont even feel like they are our pets anymore because I cant play with peanut cuz precoious will freak out and if i play with precious she gets anxious and still goes after peanut!! I have been looking for dog trainers , but till after the holidays i dont have the time to run and do the sessions .. and i really dont know what to do in the mean time .. Any one else expericence this ??? Any idea how to calm precious's anxiousness so i can leave them out when kids or company are around.. ?? I want them to be PETS! I want them to be out and around the family but at this point i have to keep them confined to the kitchen because when everyone is home , her anxiousness is out of control .. when im home alone or at nite i let them have full run of the house and then peanut wants to play and precoious will shoulder her most of the nite that i cant relax becuase i have to constantly watch for signs of attack! its fustrating!!
Any help would be wonderful .. suggestions.. anything .. i love these two little dogs

.....................sorry for rambling but im at my whits end!

I know its hard but I would continue to keep them separated untill you can get a trainer. Ive heard where yorkies have gotten into fights and one kills the other. I just wouldnt take the chance of that or serious injury
