Re: Raising Littermates

Well you certainly have your hands full. I can't help but wonder why you choose 2 puppies, especially the same sex. Well its to late for that, you will need to do a real balancing act with them if they spend to much time together they will bond more with each other than with you if they don't spend enough time together they might decide they don't want to share their home with another dog.

I would divide the time together and apart as much as possible. Definately they should not be crated together but I would not see a problem if they were kenneled next to each other or crated in the same room. You can attend training sessions together with your wife each with a puppy. Then I might take someone to the park alone or some other place and rotate the puppies.

Good luck.
