Hi all,
Jeffrey is now a sweet 9-month-old Basset and my husband and I are thinking about getting him a little sister. We found an adorable little girl that we would love to have (she would come home around Thanksgiving when Jeffrey will be just over 10 months old). Jeffrey is neutered and very good with other dogs, but we're wondering if he's old enough to know not to play too hard with a puppy. He had some contact with an 8-week old kitten about 3 months ago and definitely played too hard with him. He wasn't aggressive at all, he just wanted to play.
So I'm wondering what those of you with multiple Bassets think about this situation. Also, will a boy and girl basset (she will be spayed when appropriate age) get along well, or should we go with another boy?
Thank you so much!
