We love Lexie and Rosalie visits. RENE just lights up when her sister comes. There is nothing as special as litter mates, the relationship really reminds me of human twins. They even walk/ run in step. They seek each other out to lay next to each other and cuddle. It is very special. You will hear people say never get litter mates they won’t bond with the people but that is SO NOT TRUE of poodles. Another dog completes their world ( they are pack animals) they are so happy to have people that love them and the company of another canine. Two babies are not more work, you are doing the same for one anyway. Two pups at once is easier than adding a dog later😊 puppyhood which is short anyway is over and done at once. Two poodles are twice the fun!
