Hi, everyone

We are considering getting a little baby brother or sister for Lucy (a YT, of course) - but I need some advice:

Lucy is 6 months old, and (obviously?) female. If we were to get another pup, should it be male to avoid clashes of any sort?

Also, someone's told me that you should wait until your first pup is an adult before getting another, to avoid the original pup reverting to puppy behaviours ... but I really don't want to wait that long. I know there's a mine of useful information amongst YTers - can you share your thoughts with me, please, before I go ahead and make the final decision?
