Does anyone have a list of everything we might need?

Best double leash?


Teach them to walk solo first

Google littermate syndrome and see if you can realistically offer what is needed to protect against this. Otherwise, just take one dog.

Please don’t get retractable leashes. Two separate normal leashes, 6 foot max.

Oof. I hope you've got others in your household who are willing to help.


Yes, I have three others who I've told will be helping.


That wasn't the question. You need to think about how this will be if it all falls on you.

OK, so that's a different situation. Get a trainer. Make plans to give them separate time 1:1 with you, separate walks, separate meals. You can do this.


Thank you. I was thinking walking them together would be ok. They were previously walked together.
