Hi, I have 2 yorkshire terriers, 1 is 6yrs and the other 9yrs old, since dd was born we have tried to get them used to her slowly so that they dont get jealous.

1 dog is fine but the other doesnt like dd and it is worse now dd is crawling everywhere, the last few days she has started growling and snapping if dd goes anywhere near her and I need to stop this before the behaviour gets even worse!

I dont want to have to keep the dogs seperate all the time but have started doing this to keep dd safe! Please help!!!!

If it were me, I'd put the dogs away from DD but keep them together, then at least they'll have each other for company and you can have them with you once DD is in bed or napping. I believe you just can't take risks (not implying you are) where kids and dogs are concerned. Once the dogs get used to a new pattern, I'm sure they'll accept it.
We had to keep our cat away from DD when she was born as he was a bit wild so he went out during the day and came in for cuddles once she'd gone to bed.

Try here ... there are a few dog behaviourists on there as well as experienced owners - they give great free advice.
