We have the option of adopting a bonded pair of (two females). One is 8, the other 4. Lovely natured girls. The thing is, we have never owned a dog before, never mind two! I grew up with dogs in the home but haven’t had any since I got married. We are a family of 4, myself, my husband and two sons aged 12 and 7.5. I have heard that 2 is easier but have also heard the opposite. Advice appreciated!
