| I have three and very soon I will be getting my 4th. Three is not really a big deal, potty training was actually easier with my 3rd (the other two helped out). I do splurge on their food (Orijen) but I think it compensates for vet bills as it helps them stay healthy (IMO). I also did much research on the breeders and I feel this also blessed me with my healthy puppies. I would not trade my 3 for anything, they each have a particular person in the family that they gravitate to. All three bring us so much more love. If your financial situation allows you to, I would not miss this chance.

| My mom, friend, and boyfriend think I have enough, and i know I don't need another or have the extra money for one, but she's all I can think about and I just want her so bad! I wish everyone would just be okay with my decision and not think I'm making a bad one. I don't have the money, but I have the love, and I'd do anything for my babies...

| I would have 10 dogs if my fiance allowed it. They do really learn from one another.

| I have had three at a time....I thought it would be pretty much the same.....I had my two boys(they were brothers)...Then, my breeder was retiring some of her breeder girls....Asked if I would help her place the girls in good homes...I would bring them home one at a time and kept them til we found a place suitable for them to live out their lives...We probably took in at least 5 or 6 differ girls and eventually found them all homes....So I think we had a good feel of what three would have been.... Three was hard....Then we were having issues w/ Bennie and his fear and I mean FEAR of Men....We worked with him but finally decided it was not fair to him so he went to a wonderful home with a lady that has no men and is doing better than he has ever been... So now we are back to Two...Barney and Belle....Would I like a third one....Selfishly, yes, But realistically, it would not be fair to my two babes that I have know...But there is a spot in my heart waiting for the right time and place...Who knows where or when that will be or if it will ever happen. So I can totally sympathize with your thoughts and feelings... I wish you the best in your decision

Senior Yorkie Talker | we have 5 dogs total, 2 outside and 3 inside.... our 3 inside dogs are aged 2yr (in dec), 1 yr and 4mths.... NO PROBLEMS here! just be sure they get along =] think of it this way, youve had plenty of "practice" with your 2, it should only be that much easier for the 3rd
