Who has more than one dog , advice please

OK! DOG BORE ALERT!!! I HAVE 3 !!!.. Got all day!!!..

I’ve always had loads of Jack Russells! At the mo I have my 2 Jackie girls (Maud & Alice) and my partners Collie boy (Max)…My advice is GET HIM!!! :smile: …They are pack animals and they love each others company, either to play with or cuddle up with!..That’s it! I’ll stop there!!! Mx

I have two border collie bitches.
I did have a third but she became so obsessed with me that she started going for people who came into the house. Funnily enough she was the only rescue dog. The other two we had from 8 weeks old.
It took me a long time to get over having to have a dog put down as I’ve been surrounded with dogs all my life and never had it happen before.
The two we now have are great together. There is a pecking order but nothing beyond an occasional under the breath growl.
I have only ever had dogs together or bitches together. Never mixed.

Hello ! I dont come on the forum very often these days as I have to say I prefered the old forum I find this one a bit confusing, lol ! BUT I suddenly remembered this thread I started and YES we got another dog we have had him nearly 9 months , bless him he was in rescue kennels for a year and a half no one wanted him. All that happened was his owner had died but being a whippet jackrussell cross he has that bravado of a JRT andI think he barked at everyone and put them off but he knew we were a soft touch as he didnt bark at us when we met. Anyway he settled in a treat after a month of our girl snarling and telling him off , a couple of fights, yikes :scream: but now they are bezzy buds . So glad we did it , double trouble but ten times the fun and love :heart_eyes: . So thanks to you all for your good advice xx buddy has

his uses as Jessies pillow!

Aww thanks Sarah, they are too cute both just needed a secure home and a bit of love. My husband said that’s it tho am not allowed any more. I follow loads of dog rescues on Facebook I am a sucker for those pooches, lol.

Yes, I’m the same Helen, having only one dog at the moment, lovely though he is, I keep looking all the time. My brother’s getting a pup next week though, so I (hopefully)may be asked to help out with him :blush:

Do you follow Lovestreetdogs? I think that’s what it’s called. We meet a lovely rescue dog from there, (originally from Romania) on our walks.
