It is sooo great having two dogs. When I got my first dog I told myself that I would never get another, one was all I needed. But one day I stumbled across this dog that was being abused so I just had to take him in. Its great, there really is no extra work to it, and a second dog is not only fun for you but it is fun for you first dog aswell, they now have someone to play with while your at work or school, they are not as sad to see you leave because they now have a friend to keep them company. Trust me two dogs is just as good as one.
