Absolutely not! No regrets whatsoever! I can and do carry both-they are both fairly small. Gracie is 6# and I think Bristol will be smaller. Right now she is about 3#. I toyed with the idea back and forth for awhile...could I love another as much, could I do as much for another, would it be fair to Gracie to add another...when I made up my mind I never looked back. Twice the fun and two to love! Wouldn't know what I would do without either BUT 2 is my limit. After 2 I think I would be comprimising what I can do and how to spread my love. :) |

I always think about getting a second one also.. cause my Timba is lonely .. he needs a lil sister... to annoy him..lol... but the only fear I have is that whenever we go to families houses to visit I would have to take the both of them.... it's now that they complain when I take the one I have... they always say oh do you have to take that annoying lil dog with you when you come here... and my answer to them is yes he is my baby where I go , he goes... if you don't like it then I won't come over... so imagine if I have 2 they would hate it... well too bad .... cause the thought of getting another has crossed my mind several times... and I'm so close to going to get her..... |
No regrets! :thumbup::thumbup: We've only ever had one dog at a time but they were all large breeds. After having to put our 15 yr old blk lab down and getting Mia - I just wasn't sure if I had enough room in my heart for a second one BUT I hated that Mia was alone during the day and also that she had become "Daddy's Girl". :D Mia was a year old and we decided that if we were going to get another one that it should be now. Luckily, we found Max who totally completes our family. Mia & Max are opposites in every way - and Thank God they are! Max is a "Momma's Boy" and playful. Mia is a "Daddy's Girl" and a watch dog! LOL! Hubby and I have always said our marriage is like a teeter-totter -- we balance each other out... and that's how we see Mia & Max. I couldn't imagine not having 2 now. It is a little more work but so worth it!! Double your pleasure! :D |
I did have regrets adding a second pup. It wasn't for the companionship reason though, it was because I added another female of approximately the same age and although their relationship started out good it evolved into an aggression issue with the second female toward Sophie. There was no doubt that Sophie was here first and our first love. Although little Hazel was sweet to us she aggressively dominated everything from toys to the couch and I needed to re-home her with a good family who could give her that only child home she needed. It was hard because we were attached to her but Sophie came first in our hearts. I wish I had sought advice here as to the proper gender and age of adding a second puppy before we went through with it. Everything has turned out fine and we are thrilled to have just Sophie as our only child. I don't know if down the road we'll revisit the idea but for now life is great as it is!:animal-pa |
I only have one, but there has been a couple of time that I thought about getting another one. But, my Husband and I like to travel and visit different attactions...So what to you do with you YT? How do you handle traveling with them and enjoy the sites without leaving them in the car or a hotel. Or do you leave them with friends and family. Any suggestions, because we are trying to plan a vacation and don't know what to do with her. :confused: |

I wish I could do that, but, my Mother in law is deathly afraid of dogs. She was bitten once as a child and does like them. It doesnt make a difference as to what size they are. My children have big dogs and they don't want her around at all. They don't like small dogs. |
oops. |
Bells is 11 pounds MichaelAngelo is four pounds. I have to make two trips to get to the car when they want to ride. Bells sits or stands in passenger seat and the other is behind my neck sitting on my shoulders. It's a little harder but worth it. They were both easy to potty train so that was a plus. I love them both so much and having a companion is really what Bells needed. |
I do miss just having one - sometimes. When they are sleeping, I love having two! Nick, my first, never got into trouble when it was just him. Daisy is such a trouble maker, she drags him into it! For example, just this morning my husband calls me at work and says "Guess what Daisy made Nick do?! Get in the trash and pull out raw chicken and a carrot butt!" Plus, they play together so hard it turns into loud distructive fights! They have a billion chew toys but they always want the same one. It is really a lot different having two...not that I don't love them both but next time we will probably just have one at a time. Good luck with your decision. |
I only have one and have thought about adding another one but have several friends who say they regretted getting another one. They said it's not as easy and it's harder to take 2 around places and wish they had not gotten the second one. I was actually glad to hear them honestly say that because I've been on the fence and that kind of helped me realize that one is enough for me. |
If you are going to be gone most of the day everyday having a second might be a good idea so they have each others company but I'm retired and at home almost all day with Sophie so she's not ever lonely. |
No regrets. I can hold three and sometimes four at a time. Two on my lap and one in each arm. I couldn't imagine life without any of them. Yes with more than one your attention has to be shared but they usually don't mind (there is plenty of love to go around) and they always have a playmate which is nice for them too. I have even taken two out at a time. Skyler and Lily the two babies have their own bags and travel nice together. Maya much rather stay home she gets car sick and Brody likes to keep her company. So their all different and have different needs but the love and happiness that each of them brings is worth any adjustments you'll have to make. So jump in and join those of us who have more than one but be warned they are addicting LOL.:D |
I was worried myself but now I have two in my lap, trust me they know how to curl up. It did take them about two-three weeks to adjust. I can leave them alone and they keep each other company or take them with me. One likes to be carried in a carrier and the other likes to be walked in a leash. It's double trouble and double fun. |
