So heres the situation, I have a 5 month old red dobe male Diesel And last night a red dobe girl (4 months) named Vega came to visit. Her mom was doing a home check, we are thinking about adopting Vega.
Vega stayed for about an hour, and all they did was run run run non stop.
I've never owned multiple dogs before. I'm wondering if we adopt Vega, if they'll ever be calm and sleep LOL.
I should add that we do have a 1 1/2 year old toddler. I work part time, so I'm home a lot more then most people get to be. So I'm not too worried about having enough time for them both. I know taking on 2 will be a lot more responsibility. However I think DIESEL would enjoy having someone to romp around in his yard with all day! He just loves the dog parks!
Any suggestions, ideas, thoughts would be greatly appreciated. If I adopt her, I want this to be her forever home. I don't want to bring her home, then decide in a 2 weeks, that's it too much or not working out. It wouldn't be fair to Vega to be bounced around from home to home.
My husband and I are going to talk it over, and if we want to go through with it we'd pick her up next weekend. My thought was to bring her home for a few days and see how things went.
I should add that diesel is docked & cropped, and Vega is docked with natural ears. I Wish I would have snapped a photo, but that would have been near impossible, I don't think the two stopped for a second! Lol
It was interesting to see him next to her as far as their differences. I thought diesel was a tiny boy, but he has a more stocky build, and she is very petite. Diesel was born the beginning of June and Vega was born the end of June. They're close in age and look stunning next to each other.
Let me add before anyone asks, they will be fixed ASAP, NO puppies here!
