 Two dogs make a Pack
Hi this is my first day here and this question is the one that concerned me since the first day I got my first puppy.
5 months later I decided to ad a second one to our family. I think that was the best decision ever.
I don't think that a second Yorkie is more work that you already have.
Pros
You can leave them home and they don't mind
They play all day long and they consume there energy
They learn from each other and you have less work training them
They are more balanced, as you aren't focused on one of them all the time
Cons
Vet bills
… (Let me think…) That's all
Dogs are pack animals and is's always better to have company
And a tip from my dog trainer:
How to introduce your new dog to your old one
Keep your older puppy locked in one room
Leave your new puppy near your house door.
Open your older puppy's door and don't say anything.
Just let her sniff and find the new one.
This way she will think that she found her and she'll be proud of it.
Remember the first day is the most important one.
If they get along the first day they'll get along for the rest of there lives.
Whether you are present or not.
