I'm of the two are better than one school. But, make sure that there's a reasonable difference in age; with a big breed like a Leonberger, I'd say 6 months. I have had two Irish Wolfhounds that were 3 months apart and they were five times the trouble of two adults; always up to mischief, and irresponsible, they destroyed a 3 piece suite when I left them with an adult...
Twice as much poo to pick up! Apart from double drool, double bathing and drying and eight muddy feet. Double the cost of boarding if you go away, and you may have to have two separate kennels. If you get another bitch you could find they don't get on. If you get a male you will have to be careful if she is not spayed. If she is spayed I would suggest getting a male. Much harder to walk two big dogs together too. But who am I to tell you - I have down to just five dogs now.
will be nice company for the dog you already have, contact Battersea and see if you can take a rescue, even if they don't have one they will contact you when they do.
I don't know much about that particular breed, but in my opinion, dogs are pack animals and happier with a canine companion. It's easier to have an older one and then a puppy, than getting two puppies together. Your decision, though x
I love Leos, there's a lady in my area that breeds them, you can often see her husband sat outside a cafe in the high road with up to 6 of them at a time!
Hope you decide on a friend for your one.
I'm in Essex, near Epping. I don't know them personally but have had many a chat with the husband but I think it's the wife that breeds them. I know she shows them too, often at Crufts.
