I have to ask everyone's opinion on this...
We currently have a seven-month-old neutered Golden who is fitting in with our family wonderfully. I'm married with three young children. Our pup is currently in his second series of obedience classes, and rounds out our family nicely. Here's my question...is it fair to be a one-dog household? I keep hearing how dog's are pack animals and happier with companionship, but I can't decide if I want to take on another next year. Luke ADORES the company of other dogs, so sometimes I feel a bit guilty. However, my husband and I both work from home, so he is rarely alone. Advice? Is your one-dog household a happy one? Thanks!
