I know many of you guys have two dogs, What do you guys think the pro and cons are for getting another dog. I have the most amazing Boy now he is almost 8 months old. He is with me all day ( i own a repair shop he is a shop dog) and at night he comes home with me and spends nights with two toddlers and my gf. We make weekly trips to pet smart ext.... What does everyone think I would not want a puppy I would look for a girl around the same age.

I'm in the same boat as you, we'll I will be :p once Nikko gets older and gets trained I want to get him a sibling.

How does he get along with other dogs? if he has never met another dog, you may want to socialize him first.

If I were you I would wait until he is past 1 year old. He also need to be socialized a bit more it sounds like from your post. He needs maybe play dates or trips to the dog parks.

I love having 2 dogs we adoptd our second one once Blaze was past 1 year he was almost 2 by the time we decide to get a second one. They keep each other very busy entertain each other. We still walk them most days twice a day for about 2 to 3 miles a day. They get to go out and play several times a day. We take them to the dog park about once or twice a week depending on what we have going on. Kerian was past 2 years old when we found her at a shelter needing a home we took Blaze to meet her they seem to hit it off so we took her.

We do watch their play alot to insure it doesn't get out of hand Kerian plays alot harder than Blaze.

I love having both of them they are so much fun to watch and play with.

Alpine lived with his sister from day one. When we rescued him I wanted to take it slow so my sister rescued his sister so we do meet up a lot. He loves other dogs as well my parents have too dogs he plays very well with. As for a dog park we do go to one but we live in a small town and there is hardly ever other dogs there.
