We have had Gracie for 9 months. She is just a year old. She is our only pet . She is very spoiled and an attention junky. We are thinking about getting another Yorkie so she can have a playmate, but concerned how she will be with another dog. Of course, we are hoping the breeder will give us a trial period to see if they get along. We would be getting another female and she would be 12 weeks old and should grow to be about the same size our Gracie is. She has the same father as Gracie, but different mother. Basically, her half sister would be coming to live with us. Can you tell me about your experiences if you introduced a second pet into the household or any advice?
Thanks,
Heather
