We currently have three dogs and it is very hectic and very expensive. All our pups came from shelters and two of the dogs are older (we have had them over 10 years!) so they have numerous health issues. It seems like the third dog is a good idea at the time, but, just as with children, when you go from two to three, you have to switch from a man-on-man defense to a zone defense and it is a lot to juggle! Somehow, God gives you the strength though!
