...not a good idea if the birthday girl is a yorkie. Your story just made me laugh, not that it isn't a serious situation, but having a yorkie of my own I couldn't help but laugh at your description of your yorkie trying to keep coming back for more against an 85 lb dog. They really do not know their size!
We had a little birthday party for ours a few weeks ago when she turned one, and she was such a jerk! We only had 3 dogs over and had them come in shifts so we didn't overwhelm her, and as soon as they came in she's backing a huge 60lb irish terrier into a corner and then 2 shnauzers and she's only 5lbs! As long as she didn't hurt them I had to say it was pretty funny.
I've noticed she doesn't like little kids either. I brought the little boy I nanny for by my house one day (he's 3 and couldn't stop talking about wanting to see my house and my puppy) so as soon as we walk in the door little Bianca comes running and barking. She calmed down but everytime he moved his hand to gently pet her she'd turn and try and snap at him. Needless to say I don't think she's much into kids. What neurotic dogs they are!
Well I don't know what to tell you about your situation. They hadn't had problems coexisting before did they? Maybe it was just a bad day. Any scuffles since then??
