I currently have a 14yo golden retriever who means the world to me.
I would love to get another Golden retriever, however I'm unsure how that might impact on our current dog. She is the most tolerant and patient dog, however I would hate to do something that impacted her negatively.
Has anyone introduced a new younger dog into a household with an older dog?
Would I be better to wait a few years?
Current dog is usually an active dog, however she has slowed considerably over the last few months - our cat died recently and I think there is an element of grieving involved. I was thinking a puppy might put some life back into her.
Someone is home most of the time at the moment....may not be the case in a few years.
