Hi, I can honestly say that having 2 pups is, for me, very hard, even more than having my babies, I have Lilly aged 8 months and Spud who is now 4 months. Getting a second pup, when Lilly was only 6 mths old, was my husband's idea. He is not at home all day with them, I am
. Lilly was totally housetrained at 14weeks, but now has accidents, Spud's toiletting is not going well at 17weeks and they playfight (and fight) non-stop. I have to walk both separately in the mornings, feed them separately, and trying to train and spend 1 to 1 time with them separately is the hardest! We have an open plan house, so not really anywhere to put one dog, whilst I do the clicker training with the other. They both have very different personalities, one mostly laid back, the other more excitable, Spud's greedy and starting to guard EVERYTHING, because Lilly has always taken things from him
I think the hardest part is not being able to take your eyes off them even for a second, Lilly didn't chew, now she does, and being woken by Spud once, maybe twice a night, then up at 6am. Having said all this, and I could go on
, I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THEM BOTH TO BITS. They have changed my life (especially around mopping floors and housework), destroyed my little garden
and I know things will improve.....) They are wonderful, loving, funny, creative, clever little
, the kids, 6 and 17 adore them, and my life would be poorer without them.
