Hi Guys,

Well I think most of you have met Wilson in the gallery - my brothers boxer. He's been with us for about 3 weeks now, and apart from a few squabbles, he's got along just fine with my two.

Now - my dilemma. Wilson is going home on Wednesday evening, and I'm going to miss him sooooooo much! It seemed madness at first having 3 big dogs, but now that I'm used to it it's going to seem quiet. So here's the biggie - do I get another or not? Hubby is already LOL coz he's knows me so well ;) Says it won't be long before we hear the pitter patter of four legs....

(I should probably add here that hubby works from home so they're hardly ever on their own)

Or should I be sensible and keep a spare place for Wilson so that when Bro goes away I can take him and look after him to save him going to kennels??

Help!!

Well, maybe get another and keep a place for Wilson- but can you fit 4 dogs in your house? :)

Oh I'm sure I could squeeze a little one in too :D I have quite a large house, but not much land outside. The park's not too far though...

I envy you having enough space for a third dog , I say go for it there are so many dogs who dont get a good home and you can offer one a lovely home, let us know what you get bet it's another Rotti. I'm sure you can still fit Wilson in.

I also say go for it!

If you have the room and the time. You know what they say "the more the merrier" :p

I know many people (admittedly they are animal shelter volunteers) with 3 - 4 large dogs in their family.
