resident puppy will be jealous and stress,what should  i do, cos i think my
resident puppy have separation anxiety thats why im adding new puppy

Answer
Hello
If you would like another one this is the best time to do it when your puppy is still young or else he will feel threatened if another dog comes in his territory. I don't think your puppy now will get jealous or stressed, I think it will be fun for him it may actually help out with his seperartion anxiety. Although beagles have a very complex personality you will have to watch them. They are both young so I think it will be ok for both of them. I wanted to try to get another dog when my beagle was 1 1/2 and she wouldn't allow it when I brought another beagle home. So its best to do these things when they are young. If you need anymore help please don't hesitate to ask? Best wishes and good luck!
