lost my female greyhound few weeks ago, so now just have a boy on his own but he came to me as the second dog so has not been on his own since I adopted him 5 years ago.
Difficult to know whether to get another female to keep him company - how do you tell if a dog is sad without a pal? Initially he was very subdued for the first week, now he seems okish, wants a bit more attention from me and seems to want treats to eat more but I wish he could tell me what he wants. Have tried a few foster dogs and he seemed fair quiet but then he is a laid back sort of dog and both the foster girls were rather young and pushy.
In some ways it is easier for me with just one dog and I take him with me in the car when possible - I don't work so am at home alot, but on the other hand I felt it was easier to go out on my own when the two dogs had each other as company in the house whilst I was out. I am not sure what I want.............................................any advice? Thank you so much.

Did you have two dogs then lose one - what did you do?
