Getting a second boy It is advisable to two boys or a boy and a girl? Have a 8 month old boy and am getting a 4 month old boy. The 8 month old is neutered. Will they get along or will there be a constant domoniance fight? Thoughts please. |
They should get along very well. |
I can only speak from my own experience, but my two males get along great. Snickers was 11 months when we brought Baxter home (at 12 weeks). From the first, Snickers showed who was top dog and Baxter didn't know any better. He was just a baby and he was oblivious. In time, they became friends and Baxter accepted Snickers being the dominant one. Now four years later, they are best buddies and brothers. You never see one without the other, and they always have to know where the other one is at all times. Once in awhile they'll fight over a toy, but it doesn't get out of hand. I've heard that male/females get along better than two of the same sex, but honestly it has been a blessing with our two. :) |
I don't have boys, only girls, they get along fine, I think your boys are going to be fine;) I have heard that spaying help the aggression issue a lot, good luck and congratulations, you most be very exited:D |
I think two boys generally get along much better than two girls. Especially if they are neutered- all should be fine! |
Thanks everyone for the reassurance! I just picked him up! I will post a new thread to introduce. |
I just got my second boy. They fight over dominance. Romeo (youngest) came from a litter of 3 girls and him. But the fights aren't bad. It begins as what looks like harmless wrestling then before you know it one is humping the other. Romeo isn't neutered though cause he is only 2 months old and I need to wait until the end of July to do so. But Jack is. Each pair of dogs are different. What somone else's dogs do will be different than yours. But my boys get along better every day and Jack will actually tolerate being next to Romeo now. Just be prepared for hurt looks from your first baby so pay extra attention to him. I'm still hoping mine get better. :D |
