Can Yorkie pups hurt each other by rough play ?

Decepticonlbc Mar 21, 2004 10:19 AM

Hi, I adopted 2 yorkie pups 2 days ago and they seem to play rough with each other, sometimes being too rough with one another. I would like to know if they can hurt each other by rough play. Sometimes they scream due to another one biting too hard. If this can help, one is male and the other is female. We have brought alot of toys and small bones for them to chew and play but it seems like they wind up play fighting with each other to no avail. Thanks for your help.
