I was sort of in the same boat. I also live with my parents and only have Jackson right now. They had their cockapoo but she passed away in the summer. Jackson was very lonely without her especially that first few weeks. I considered for a while getting a second and was constantly in touch with rescues and breeders on here. I visit at my dad's often and he already has 2 dogs (making 3 with Jackson over there) and he already told me I was crazy and no more dogs would be coming into his house, LOL! But anyways... after MUCH long thought and debate... I decided I'm going to just have Jackson right now. Yes, he would love a pal and I would love 2. But I'm going to wait until I'm more on my own and until that PERFECT dog comes along! I know it will be worth the wait in the end. I'm like you -- Jackson goes as many places as he can with me, to families houses and friends, etc and at the time being, it's just easier with one! As hard as that is for me! |
