Any experience of 4 terriers out there?

We currently own two. One is age 16 (F), the other is age 3 (M). They get on very well. Here is my question:
There are two terriers (F) age 10 and 11, a bonded pair, in a good local animal refuge. They are described as friendly, no behaviour issues and could live with another dog (possibly dogs). Maybe I’m having a moment, but I’m tempted to investigate…I’d love to offer them a home but…all too much? I work part time from home, spacious garden, love to walk, live in the country…

You took on a Patterdale? Without blackmail being involved? You are a saint, woman, a saint...

I have one Patterdale. And no other dogs. Or friends. She's a horror (but I love her). I'd love another dog now, but she wouldn't stand for it.

Thank you for paying the tax. There does seem room for at least 2 more on that armchair though?

At least five Patterdale owners warned me of the nature of the beast. But I’ve always had a fancy for one…I know they are mavericks and rather wild…..I’ll keep you posted!

Here they are! New dog in the middle, our senior is on the left and the young lad on the right (he’s responsible for the damage to the armchair)

Beautiful dogs ❤️ The one on the left looks so tiny. I have one Jack Russell and he’s a handful enough! He’s very sad at the moment though as there are fireworks going off somewhere in my neighbourhood.

Thank you. She is a very old, tiny (mostly) Norfolk.
