Ok, I know we've only had Bailey for a month and a half. But Brian always wanted two dogs from the beginning, so that they would be company for each other. We went to the rescue group website for H.A.P.P.E, which is the group we got Bailey from. They have another dog just like her. It's the same age as her, 7 months, a neutered male, and his name is Gavin. Both Bailey and Gavin are lab/pit bull mixes, but Bailey tends more to the pit side and Gavin tends more to the lab side, we think.
We did go to see him yesterday at an adoption fair put on by the group. We took Bailey with us and they both played together for about 3 hours. They both love doing the "my paws on the other dog's shoulders" thing. She seems to really like him.
I will be calling the landlord this morning to make sure we are allowed to have a second dog if we want. Gavin will be coming to visit us for the weekend as a trial to see if we can handle having two dogs. If all goes well, we may be able to adopt him.
Here is Gavin's picture:

I do have a question for everyone on this board. If you started out with one dog, how long did you wait before adding another? Thanks in advance for your responses to this question. :):)
