[quote=Anonymous]Its a great idea if you can find a good personality match.

We have always had multiple dogs and cats. We stuck with all females, I dont know if that has anything to do with it, but thought I would mention. All are spayed, all animals are sweet in disposition. And all have become fast friends.

We have been very fortunate to have been at this 20 years problem free.

We lost our pomeranian recently, and are adopting a new one. I found her on petfinder and I chose her specifically because of how her personality is described and because I know this kind of pom. Eventhough our shepherd collie mix is around 11 and the new dog will be 2, their energies should be pretty well matched. I predict a good outcome, but then we work from home and spend a lot of time with our animals.

I agree with all the posters who say look for a good match.

I observed my shepherd mix going over to the place where the pom used to sit out in the garden, sniff it, sit with head hung, ears down, visibly depressed, and as I approached her to pet her, slowly slump against the wall and then down on her back for a belly rub. SO SAD! So this new friend will be good for her. And for all of us, really.[/quote]
