Thinking about getting a second dog. Not because I āneedā one, but because my heart feels spacious and the idea of a bigger family feels right. Mollys mother will soon have another litter, and I keep feeling pulled toward bringing in another soul, this time black English Cocker Spaniel babygirl.
Molly herself is incredibly sweet, gentle, and truly wonderful. She is sensitive, deeply attached, and lives almost like a small person with her own rhythms and emotions. And thatās exactly where my hesitation comes in , would a puppy uplift her or throw her off balance? Would it be a beautiful addition to our home, or is this simply my subjective desire to love and care for another being, which might end up overwhelming her?
Iām speaking only about natural care!!! no vaccines, no chemicals, none of that nonsense!!! That part isnāt in question. What matters here is emotion, temperament, and living dynamics.
If anyone has experience with a very attached, sensitive dog and later introduced a puppy into the home, share your perspective. Did it make your dog more confident and joyful, or did it create stress and competition? I want to understand reality, not theory.
