Oh hun, if you really want another I would go for it! In fact, I DID go for it! lol....when Louie was about 1 yr. I think it was that we decided to get him a sister for companionship and company. At first I too didnt know if we did the right thing because he was just the center of our world. Well, we went to see Bella by ourselves first and fell in love with her but did not take her home. We wanted to bring Louie THERE to meet her and see how he acted. Well, he is a real mellow guy anyways and acted just fine, like he really liked her, so right there and then we bought her and took her home, so they were BOTH with us on the car ride home. When we got in the house I immediately put her in the "playpen" thingy that we had up at the time and let Louie just kind of walk around and check her out.....we gave HIM most of the attention at first just so he knew that there was NO_ONE that was going to take his place. After a little while we would put him in there with her and watch them and they seem to do just great so after more time we let her out and really supervised them and everything went great from there on in...They are the BEST of friends and so so much fun to watch. It was the best move we ever made to have the 2 of them! In fact im thinking of getting a 3rd!!!! Good luck to you hun and let us know what you've decided.
