Pippa will be spayed at 7 months and I would also get the new pup fixed (if that matters). Thanks again everyone, I REALLY appreciate your input  |
As for the gender of your new puppy...unless you have a preference, I would let circumstances and Pippa pick. I wanted two females, and have two. Since they are both spayed they get along fine...however, my one girl really prefers to play with the boys...gets all flirty...very funny to see. If I were to bring in a third dog...I would aim at getting a boy...and one that SHE liked. I will love whichever fur butt shares my life, but if I'm going to upset her life, I want her to LOVE the new dog as much as me.
