That's a great way of putting it! Double the fun!

I've also read that it's not good to get two puppies from the same litter. But we're getting 2 puppies this friday. Both females. Our 9 month old Trixie passed away 2 weeks ago today. We're not replacing her, just trying to ease the pain by getting another dog (or should I say two!). I'll have pictures on my albums soon!

We're not sure what to name, them. Does anyone know any good sites with puppy names, or what did you name your puppies? I'm thinking Dixie and Pixie, but my parents don't like that for some reason..? I don't want to name one of them after Trixie, it just doesn't feel right to me.

I'm so sorry for your loss.
How about names that are totally different from your little Trixie.
Something like Lindy and Mindy. Just a thought.

I realize that people have different experiences raising puppies, but is it really that bad? Any information that you could offer would be greatly appreciated. Molly and Maggie share a crate, is this is a good idea? Any tips on housebreaking would be greatly appreciated as well.

Hi and welcome to YT. Congrats on your girls. I have a boy and girl but they are not related at all. I have a Maggie as well.

I agree with some of the other posters, if you give them one on one time then here won't be any jealousy. Best of luck.
