I have a 3 year old female yorkie and a 10 month old male yorkie. At times they proceed to chase each other around the house, and do this thing where they stand on their hind legs, lock front paws, and bare teeth, at times nipping one another. Sometimes, the female will pin the little guy by his shoulders to the ground and other times, she will get on top of him and grab him by the neck with her teeth. This may be a stupid question, but are they fighting each other when this behavior ensues or are they just playing rough? I've had the little guy for 7 months now and they have been like this for the past month. Sometimes they are very sweet to one another, i'll catch them sleeping together, or the female will bring the toys to the little one so that they can play, but then all of the sudden i just see them chasing each other and all of this growling and teeth baring begins and I don't know what to do. I just want to do something before it gets worse. Thanks!
