<p class=MsoNormal>I think getting another dog depends on how you and your
boyfriend feel about it. First of all you are never going to “replace”
a hound that has made his way to the bridge so don’t think of getting a
new dog as a replacement It is not fair to you or to the new dog who in your
mind will never live up to the memory of the dog that passed. If
you want another dog get it. Since I have been in rescue most of my
adult life I suggest rescue since there are so many homeless hounds
everywhere. Why do you think you can’t have an adult dog because
your BF has a male terrier? Anyway I think you need to search your heart
and see what feels right to you. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>If you do decide to try rescue when you go to meet the dog
take the BF’s terrier with you to meet on neutral ground.<o:p></o:p></p>
