have you even introduced the dogs. IMO you shouldn't make any desisions untill you see the dogs together. Met them in a neutral place all on leash and pack walk then watch their body language and take it form there. If all works out great. As stated always supervise them. I have both dogs out with me but once I cannot keep an eye on them one or both go to their beds for some quiet time.
Good Luck let us know what you decide

personally because they are not your dogs. Id keep them separate from your dog. All it takes is one spat and the owner of the yorkies could be furious. Its just safer to keep them away from each other all together in my mind. Like if I foster dogs for people, those dogs are my responsibility to keep them from harm etc I don't let my APBT or bully breeds interact with fosters just for the sheer fact if a "Pit Bull" attacks another dog theres a lot more pressue put apon them vrs if say I had a Cocker Spaniel attack a foster beagle. LOL

I grew up with a yorkie in my parents house. Now my brother and i both have an apbt. When we go over there we let all 3 play in the backyard and the yorkie is no joke. She will try and try to pick a fight with one of the big dogs. She is very territorial.

You can foster them.... I would follow a crate and rotate routine. Allowing them time to get to know each other and you aswell.

Good luck with these little dogs.

One of Mollie's best friends is a little 2 lb Yorkie/Dachshund mix. Ugly little critter, but Mollie loves her!

after the yorkies left my wife decided not foster then she realized that it was going to be hard for her to deal with three dogs at the same time we have different working schedules the yorkies all they wanted to do was sleep and aspen all she wanted to do was play i'm glad she realized that is not easy taking care of three dogs

Well, I wouldn't leave the dogs alone together with Aspen, they would always be surpervised. I'd keep a close eye and if Aspen showed an signs of being DA towards them, I wouldn't keep them together even when I was present. Being so little and Aspen being a pit bull, I wouldn't take to chance one of them getting bit. All it could be for them from Aspen would maybe be one bite and then it's all over. Really, it's up to you, but for myself that's what I would do.
