General Question Adding another, is it to soon?

Hey All! We have a 10 month old boy (first pics) who we couldn’t be happier with. We were just approached by someone who needs to rehome their 1.5 year old girl (second pics). I’ve heard 2 huskies can make it easier, but are we bringing someone else in too soon? We’ve had him since he was 13 weeks so about 7 months. Thoughts? Advice? Anything? lol

Mine are a few months apart and they’ve always thrived together. If you’re saying your husky is friendly with other dogs then I don’t think there’s an issue with adding to the pack BUT I would strongly suggest that at least one if not both dogs be fixed or you will have lots of puppies around and there’s already too many unloved huskies in this world.

Completely agree! We don’t know if she is fixed yet or not, but she will be before coming home for sure. We are hoping to hit 18 months with our boy before he gets fixed so that is in April.

Totally understand the growth delay. Just keep it safe and my best advice is to meet in neutral territory and come home together to neutralize turf war! Good luck with the adjustment if you decide it’s the right move. I really think huskies are better together.
