I had one dog growing up, my hubby always had 2. He wanted 2 once it was time for us to get our own dogs. I was a bit nervous, but we both work and wanted the first to have company while we were gone...plus, I just cannot resist dogs. So we resuced Abby and about a month later resecued Brady.
Now, Abby is the world's laziest boxer, but about 2 weeks before we brougth Brady home, she started getting restless at night...just like she had not used up enough of her energy during the day. But she was not interested in playing or running around, even though she had a playroom to do so in...and it was winter and she HATED the cold and the snow so getting her to walk outside was awful.
Brady changed everything....she plays so much with him that she is worn out every day now (and she loves to walk with her buddy now, even in the snow..Brady taught her to eat the snow)...and honestly, it has made our life much easier. They amuse each other and keep each other company. She has become much more independant and they just sooo enjoy each other's company, I don't feel as bad leaving for work any more. Brady is a little less independant, he's an extreme mama's boy, so sometimes Abby has a little bit of a time trying to pull him away from me to play, but she always wins in the end!
Hi and welcome!
