You know, I've been really afraid of even the idea of getting another dog after what happened with Bailey. I've been afraid that I won't be able to love another dog as much as I loved her.
I thought the EXACT same thing when Riley came along. I don't know if this applies to anyone else, but I love Riley and Brooke in a different way. Brooke was my first dog and holds a special place in my heart, but we've had Riley since she was 8 weeks old, and now she is more like my little kid. Brooke was more of a sister since I grew up with her.

Don't worry though, you'll find out that you have enough room in your heart for more dogs. There's a quote out there that says when you get more kids/dogs (whatever) the love you have for them doesn't split in half, it doubles.

Good luck on getting her!!
