We have a 5 and a half month old puppy, she's a very cute Sheltie/Bichon mix. She's also EXTREMELY social and loves interaction with other dogs, people, anything living. I guess most dogs do.
I sometimes wonder whether it would be good to get a second puppy as a companion for her, especially when we leave her home alone (for work, etc). We play with her as much as we can and take opportunities to socialize her to other dogs in the neighborhood, take puppy classes, get people to meet her, but is that enough?
Do you think she's happy on her own? She's a lot of work on her own, and a second dog would be a major commitment. In addition, we've only had her for a few months (and we're first-time pet owners).
This is all just inquisitive. We're not deciding anything definite, just learning from this wonderful community. We just want to hear your thoughts.
