Hi, everyone.
I had a solo dog for about 5 years before giving in and getting a second dog. The second dog made life so much easier and it was a delight to watch them play, make plans for them together, etc.
I'm looking toward the future and wondering exactly how difficult it would be with 3 dogs instead of 2. All would be under 30 pounds, and likely 2 of the 3 would be under 10 pounds. I'm a single female with no kids but lots of nieces and nephews. I own my own home with a nice-sized yard and garden, all fenced in.
I have the option of bringing my dogs to work. What I would probably do would be bring 1 of the 3 dogs to work at a time. That way, each dog gets some individual attention and training time, but the dogs left at home would have a buddy and not be alone.
What is your experience? Do you have 2 dogs? 3? More? I am specifically wondering about the advantages of 2 over 3 (or vice versa).
