This kind of things is best controlled by using the cache_peer_access or
neighbor_type_domain directives.
Something like the following should do it I think:
cache_peer your.squid2.address parent 3128 0 no-query connect-timeout=2
acl squid2_domains dstdomain .com
acl squid2_destinations dst xx.yy.0.0/16
cache_peer_access allow squid2 squid2_domains
cache_peer_access allow squid2 squid2_destinations
prefer_direct off
nonhierarchical_direct off
but several other configurations are possible depending on what you
really want when it comes to load balancing, failover and sharing of
cache content.
