How to stop new dog from humping?
We just adopted a Yorkie mix (6 months old) a couple days ago (so he's neutered as of Monday) and he is either humping toys or trying to hump my Chipoo (3 years). And when this happens, they start to fight because my dog doesn't like it (I assume this is a dominance thing). And when the Yorkie has a toy and my Chipoo wants it, they can get snappy at each other. Is there a way to fix this? The last thing I want to do is take him back (besides the humping, he's really a good fun dog).

Humping a newly neutered dog is no reason to take him back.
Chipoo is telling the new dog that she (?) doesn't want to be humped. That's fine and you need to back her up by calmly but forcefully telling the new dog "no" and calling him away. Over time he will learn not to do this. In addition, it can take weeks/months for the hormones to calm down after neutering so do not expect behaviour to change instantly.
Snappy over toys is another issue entirely. Chipoo and the new dog are going through a settling in period where they get used to each other and sharing. It *should* settle in time but you need to watch them for these first few weeks to ensure snapping doesn't escalate to something much worse. Ensure you are not giving the new dog much more attention than Chipoo and do not let either dog take toys off the other. If you need to you may need to remove all toys and only allow them when you are there to supervise and participate in play.

Don't look at getting him castrated to stop this behaviour, because ten to one, it won't. Humping like this isn't about sex (unless with a b itch in season lol) but all about dominance, and perhaps not knowing his place in the pack yet. When you have more than one dog, you have to adjust what happens with the dog - and that includes removing anything that triggers a fight, including toys. They can have toys to play with, but only under your direct supervising especially right now when it's all new for both of them, especially your original dog. For now, don't leave them alone together. Obviously they will need to be together to bond, but only under your direct supervision, and when your new dogs starts unwanted behaviour, stop him - humping doesn't just begin so get in there as soon as he starts this nonsense and separate them. There's no need for your existing dog to get so upset that he needs to start fighting. If the new one won't take no for an answer, get in and split them up. Once he, he older one, sees you are in charge, hopefully things will settle down and he'll enjoy having the company of another canine.
Not all dogs like to have to share however, and this may be a situation where having two dogs isn't going to work.
ps If the Yorkie has been castrated, but only last Monday? then it's way too early to see any results - the hormones will take some weeks to settle down. And if he has just had surgery, he shouldn't be allowed to be humping - it could rip out the stitches.

Neutering a canines on the age of 6 won't stop this habit which isn't carried out pondering of sexual urges, this is performed out of dominance and a few protection! the electrical powered collar will artwork, whether, there's an prolonged technique excited by using it effectively and you probable can want each and each individual to show you approaches. A prong collar related to his long line might artwork greater suitable, if which you may have the skill to appropriate him before the habit starts off, appropriate as he's pondering doing it and you do no longer mind working the canines for a whilst.

its been a couple days.. you cant expect a dog to know right from wrong without training him. you have no idea what his background is as you got him from a shelter. train him what no means, and when he does it, tell him no.
