Just wondered what the dog lovers on this website think--One dog or two?
I've never had two dogs before--i had some 'fur-less' kids back then..:msngiggle: I've been thinking of rescuing one more---at some point in the future --after our new dog Buddy is all totally secure here and all.
I have a 2-3? year old neutered male BC, and daydream sometimes of getting a lil female BC, too. Buddy seems SOOooo interested in even dogs going by out the window, he seems almost lonesome for another dog to play with, when he does get a chance to play with another dog, he is in nirvana.:doglaugh:
Of course we'd hafta be sure they get along and all that, and do the introductions in neutral setting, etc etc, to see how they'd click and all. But i'm picturing how much fun that'd be, two lil dogs all playing and having fun with each other...
WHAT'S IT LIKE? Is it twice as much work, or do they bounce off each other somewhat, so it's half as less work?
Anyone out there ever regret getting a second dog, like, there was troubles, or what? Is it too much to have two border collies? Wouldn't they kinda need to run and play together, to burn off some of their energy?:dogbiggrin:
Do two dogs who live together play together on their own, or do you hafta get it all started up for them? What is it like?
