Ok hers is the deal. I always look at the classifies , Petfinder, rescue sites. Just to see...i torture myself with the"idea"of adding another. Just like with my kids i have a dream in my head of the two playing nicely, running around... Well Allie is 3 years old, 8lbs,spayed,pad trained, pretty good little dog.
Well i find a 2 1/2 year old male, neutered,7 lbs, pad trained, darker coloring (, which i like) and he's really cute. The family is rehoming him, because of new baby,( my boys are 17 &14, they could care less, Allie is all mine) and the family is busy with work, school,...yeah yeah.
I know expenses will double. I'm prepared for that.

Pros: I always wanted another.
Very similar to Allie ( size wise)
They only want 200.00 for him.
Pad Trained, healthy,utd on shots and meds.

Cons: we have a good routine here.
Allie seems happy
We rent and will be moving in February, harder to find something with 2?

I just don't want to upset the balance in the house. Things are going good.
I don't want Allie to suffer. I "think" she's ok with other dogs, very submissive on walks when she sees them. But what about in her own home. The lady is expecting an email from me...I'm soooo confused. I've always been so impulsive and just want to make the right decision. I wish we could have a trial run.
Oh his name is Charlie. ( if i was to ever get another that is the name i like)ughhh not making this decision easy...help!
