Possible 2nd dog

I have two labs and the two are joined at the hip. I got Sam, rescued at 12 weeks, so that Hokie, rescued at 13 months, would stay home and have someone to play with. It worked beautifully and where one is so is the other. If anything should ever happen they'd have to be kept together. When I took Hokie for his heartworm treatment Sam looked everywhere for him. When he got home he was so sore in his rear legs that he couldn't run and play. Sam just stood over him and whined and he was only 3 months at the time. Seeing the two of them together is the light of my life and all is well.

congrats! make sure they meet on neutral ground and are off leash in a fenced area. when off leash it makes it easier for them to act like a dog. pay LOTS of attention to Tobey so he doesn't get jealous of the other dog.

good luck and take lots of pics!

Thanks for the advice guys. Rang the lady today and she said she wouldn't have brought him straight to the house anyway which bodes well.....have arranged to meet them either this evening or tomorrow for walkies
