A local radio dog-related talk show recently suggested that if you are
adopting two puppies, adopt a male and a female, but not from the same
litter. I had never heard this before. Can you tell me the reasoning
behind this? My plan was to get a brother and sister, and I may adopt 8
week old brother and sister from the pound tomorrow.
Thanks

First, if you are going to adopt a male and female, make sure that you neuter and spay them
at the proper time. Honestly, two puppies growing up together get into 100 times more mischief then
one puppy alone. I would get one puppy - grow it up for one year - then if you want another one go
for it!
