Default Dog people....need your advice.

I think my other dog is a bit jealous that I have this new puppy.
I have a Siberian Husky ( Very good dog ) recently I bought my little sister a dog for her b-day.
I guess im much more of a dog lover than she is cause i've been taking care of him.
He is 2 months old and im not sure when the right time is to introduce my other dog with him.

The husky is 4 years old - female
the yorkie is 2 months old - male.

When is the best time to introduce them to each other? I know my husky wont inhale him or anything but you never know what a jealous dog could do.

I know shes jealous cause every morning she would scratch my door to walk her or she would be by my door when i get home. These past two days my bitch has ignored me....

Dogs live in packs like wolves in a way.... It's like this: If you have a dog for three years and then bring home a newborn baby, the dog is gonna feel like it is superior to the baby, and higher on the pecking order. If the baby does something that pisses it off it will snap on the baby. Most people have no comprehension of this kind of thing and would therefore have the dog put down. I mean yeah the baby is more important than the dog.... but that's getting off subject.
I just think that is something to consider.
I had some husky's when I was growing up, three of them were full bread, and the three pups were husky-mallimute mixes.
I really miss the way they would howl, and ALWAYS get out of the fences.
Hope that helps.

The best is when i take my husky to my parents winter home in the poconos.
I got one of those electronic fences so I leave her running around outside all day.
Shes out in the SNow all day. from 7am -4-5pm. She actually comes back and knocks on the door with her paw.. Cant wait till it snows here in NY so I can get away for the weekend.

At night the Yorkie cries & cries. I feel so bad cause I know they removed him from his parents the day I got him. (2 days ago ). What are somethings I can do to kind of get that off his mind?

My step mom has a yorkie pom mix, and it used to cry every night, because we would keep it in the kitchen. But it eventually just got over it. They are so clingy, and I don't mean that in a bad way, that they want to be around thier master all the time. My step sister got a yorkie- something mix, and it cries when it's left alone... I think he'll eventually get over it.
My stepmoms dog goes with on long motorbike ride, in a little bag thing made for carrying a really small dog. It'a friking trip when we go on charity rides and there is this little tiny dog with all these biker types. I usually walk her around so the chicks will come up and talk and junk.
