Okay all of you with more than one Newf I need your advice.
The time when Coleridge is to come here is getting closer. Samuel is my BEST friend and is so loving and close to me!!! I am afraid that I will lose that and that the two dogs will bond and won't be as close to us as now. I know they will keep each other company BUT I want them to want to be with me! Selfish -- maybe -- but I don't care...
Questions are: Will I lose the closeness I have with Samuel when Coleridge arrives? Will it be harder to train the puppy with a 10 month old dog? Will Samuel's feelings get hurt and will he feel left out? He is the center of our universe right now.
Can you all tell I have only had one dog at a time??? People are telling me it is a mistake and I will regret it -- BIG TIME!!!
Please be honest with me and let me know you thoughts.
Thanks -- I don't want to make a mistake and hurt either dog. I would go without Coleridge if that was the case...
