Also...and some may or may not be honest enough to agree with this one...I would not have gotten a second Yorkie. I thought Jo needed a playpal...Riley doesn't play very often at all...I thought Jo was independant and didn't want to sit with me...in reality Riley is usually on my lap or snuggled up next to me and Jo looks at me with a sad face like that's where he would like to be. Riley is a great companion for Jo, he loves to snuggle...they're great buddies...but...it's a year now after adding Riley and I can see where it may have actually 'hurt' Jo in some ways rather than help him.
I totally agree, although I did come home at lunch time until she (Sophie) was 8, she would have been happier with another pup to snuggle, play with when I wasn't home during those work hours.

When Charlie and I return from our holiday in early July, my goal is to find an older sister for him. Again, this is a great thread. -Deborah
