One dog ruling a house and yard without any dog friends goes through life keeping most of his thoughts to himself. He may occasionally commiserate with a neighbor on the other side of the fence about the quality of his food or the antics of the local cats. On walks, these lonely canines try to convey the highlights of a day's worth of solo philosophizing to four-legged compatriots with a simple nudge, sniff or wag in passing. A lonely existence, but one which many dogs suffer though on a daily basis. An inattentive dog owner may mistake a single dog's avid attention for affection. But what they are actually doing is asking you to buy another of their own kind who they hang around with.

Those of you who give in to this crafty canine strategy will be delighted with the results during what is known as the "honeymoon period," a time when both the resident dog and the new arrival thank you profusely. But soon they will start to ignore you in favor of pursuing the covert meetings and secret activities which are indicative of their dog heritage. Perhaps you've never heard dogs discussing lawn excavation plans, treat tactics and strategic pooping, but they constantly plot and share secrets as to how to take advantage of you the owner. As a wise man once said, one dog is a pet, two are a problem.

You can learn how to handle the challenges presented by multiple dog ownership by watching this series of free dog management videos. Our expert will demonstrate how to feed, walk and travel with several dogs at a time. She will tell you how to settle dog disputes and keep them from barking all night. You must figure out how to control your dogs or they will control you.
