Yes she can get lonely. If you suspect this, you need to pay a little more attention to her/him so it won't be lonely.

Yes, I get what you mean, but the puppy's going to need a crate until it's reliably housetrained and past the chewing stage - that's until 8 months at the least when it'll be finished teething. The dogs can still keep each other company, just when you're home. It's not safe for your things or the dogs for them not to be crated until this puppy's older. What you do is start working with your older dog so she's not destructive because of separation anxiety. It's not hard to do - and there's also meds you can get from your vet to be used in conjunction with training. But you've got to make sure first that the destruction isn't because of boredom. If dogs don't get LOTS of exercise - physical and mental through training - they get frustrated and bored and destructive because of it. If that's her reason, you're only going to end up with 2 destructive dogs so make sure both get plenty of exercise and training.

Yes a puppy can get very lonely.Now considering you have a dog and not a puppy she will adapt to being alone.Lots of toys and attention from you when you are home will help her alot.

Yes she can. If you can, get another puppy or invite some of your friends with dogs over for regular play dates.

JUST GIVE YOUR PUPPY 24/7 ATTENTION SUCH AS PLAY WITH HER, LET HER SLEEP BESIDE YOU AND PET HER A LOT. OR JUST LEAVE SOME OLD SLIPPERS OUT, OR EVEN GO FOR SHORT WALKS

No. Dogs/puppies don’t necessarily need canine companionship, as long as they get plenty from you.

Of course! Dogs are pack animals.

Of course she can. Dogs are pack animals and are much happier being around others (people or dogs)
