That's funny I usually split the grooming in half as well. Vilka is very good about it but it still takes me a while.

Another question I have is about going from a Standard household to a Standard+Mini or a Standard+toy--does anyone have experience with this?

I have spoken to some really nice and knowledgeable breeders lately who have said sometimes the dynamic can change when you add the other smaller type.

But I don't know if that's true in general for people going from a single dog to a multiple dog house?

I hope I'm not being obnoxious with all my questions but if we were to add another dog we would really want it to be for the benefit of all parties (new dog, old dog and us!).

Maybe the whole thing is moot and we should just think about adding another standard at some point haha.

Thanks for the opinions!
