I always think I want another one but I quickly go... ahh, so much hard work! The first 2 months with Jackson were just so tough in a good way, with the potty training, training, everything but he's always been a pretty laid back, good pup... and he's so well behaved now (for the MOST part lol) that I'm always so scared if I ever got another puppy, he'd be the complete opposite. And I'd be like WHAT did I get myself into?! LOL.
But - good news for me is... I still live at home (while in college) with my mom, step-dad, sister and their dog, Carmen. So technically, I have two dogs and Jackson ALWAYS has a friend but I only have to pay for one of those dogs! Nice deal, huh? I have a feeling when I move out, Carmen will be coming with me. She is so attached to Jackson now and she's begun sleeping with me & him every night - I'd feel awful leaving her. And whenever I visit at my dad's house, they have their 1 1/2 year old Jack Russel mix over there so Jackson is never alone or an "only dog." I don't think he could ever be an only child, lol, he just likes to play too much.
