Does owning one dog make you want another?

I love having Chewie around so I think another would be great! I would love to get another puppy one day. I really want a Boston Terrier or a Pomeranian.

Quite honestly, I woud love another dog, but I am not sure if I can go through the puppy stage again

I feel the same way

So badly! I already have it picked out - a wheaten terrier. Larry David needs to be socialized, he's such a brat with other dogs. I think it would be a bad first month but, like anything else, he'd have to get used to it. But it won't be any time soon - we need to be in a house first

I wouldn't subject my 12 year old dog to a puppy in this stage of his life! But when I'm forced to let him go, I will definately get 2 more dogs so they have each other when we're not home I really want a Rottie and a Jack Russell Nice combo, huh?! lol

We have a female husky that's 1 1/2 and crazy!!! We're hoping another dog will give her a playmate to help tire her out.

She loves other dogs and we're going to try to adopt my friend's bulldog (also female). The bulldog isn't getting along with their corgi, the corgi is agressive towards the bulldong. we had considered getting a bulldog before so we hope this works out!!!

We just got a 2nd dog (a shiba inu) in anuary, and if the house deal goes through, we are getting a 3rd (hopefully a chinese crested).

I love having more than one dog. I don't think I have ever had just once, other than when we got married.

Between the 2 of us, we have 6 dogs. 2 with us, 2 with his parents (they wanted to keep them) and 2 that are with my mom.

I definitely want another dog! Plus Murphy loves other dogs so it would be like a little friend for him. I think the next time around I will pick a breed a little calmer than a Jack Russell.
