It is possible to get a second dog when your current dog is not friendly towards other dogs they come across. I recommend first socializing your dog or consider other methods before making the move.
Here are 4 things I recommend:
Socialization:
Socializing your dog is essential to help them become comfortable around other dogs. Taking them to dog parks, doggy daycares, or dog-friendly activities can help them get used to the presence of other animals.Obedience Training:
Obedience training can help your dog learn the basics of good behavior, such as sit, stay, and come when called. This can help them become more comfortable around other dogs and make them less likely to act out.Positive Reinforcement:
Providing positive reinforcement when your dog interacts with other dogs can help them learn to like them. Offer treats or praise when they behave, and be sure to give them plenty of space and time to adjust.Be Patient:
It may take some time for your dog to become comfortable around other dogs. Be patient and don’t force them into interactions if they’re not ready.
Summary:
In order to help your dog become comfortable around other dogs, it is important to socialize them, provide obedience training, use positive reinforcement, and be patient. With time and patience, your dog can learn to like other dogs.
