Default one too many?

this is a spin off on Harold's puppy post-

he - in his chewing frayed house coat is thinking about keeping two of his pups, I was wondering how many people have kept and raised litter mates?

George Bird Evans kept litter mates once- OH Feathers and Shadows- he recommended against it after that- the dog bonded and were brothers first- eventually adventures lead to tragedy when the dogs got out and went exploring on their own - and killed a chicken each (just not done in a rural area) Shadow returned home 30 hours later with a bullet wound near his spine, but a vet saved him and after searching for 5 days - he found where someone had buried Feathers. He said Shadows never came into his own until Feathers was lost.


sad and extreme tale - i am sure someone has a brace that excell

as for me - I stagger the ages - and only once ( and unlikely to again) had three
