Publisher's Synopsis
This insightful book is aimed at both current owners and potential pet owners who would like to share their home with an animal companion, but can't make-up their mind what kind - or if two or more animals might be a better solution. Through studies and lots of real life examples, the author hopes to convince pet lovers that two's company - and even three is definitely not a crowd. It also highlights how pets could benefit from the presence of other animals in the household, and in some cases be given a completely new lease of life. Although many might feel two dogs or cats are plenty, it could be that more are even merrier. Expert advice is given on making the right choices to avoid a combination that clearly won't work, perhaps due to the breed of dog or cat; the owner's location/residence; a current lifestyle situation, or the incompatibility or some combinations for numerous reasons.
