| I just recently rescued a female Rottie. I now have a male Rottie, female Rottie, and a female German Srthair Pointer. I do notice that they compete for attention when I am giving it. But, it seems as time goes by, that the competition is not as bad as it used to be. They all know that I won't deprive them of attention! Of course, the food bill is a bit higher, and walking three dogs at one time is quite a hand full! Luckly, they are all trained! I do feel that with three dogs the "pack instinct" is a bit higher than with just two, but if you train and are the alpha of the pack that should not be a problem.
But, other than that I LOVE having the three of them!! They all get along great! My frist two just love the new female and accepted her immediatly. I don't ever regret helping Annie, and now I can't imagine my home and family without her! :)
