*I don't see any reason to insist he eat with the Yorkies. Feed him
separately, and let the good relationship continue peacefully. Possibly
as he becomes more settled in the home, his attitude will change.
Please don't let him make a mistake with the smaller dogs. It would be
a real shame. Doris E*
