Default Need help deciding on one pup or two!!

Hello!! This is my very first post (also posted in another section-hope that is ok!)- and I am SO excited to be here! My boyfriend and I will be bringing home our new baby in a few weeks- first time GSD owners. I have researched and researched and I feel that we are pretty well prepared, and I am looking forward to having a running buddy too!
Heres my big question- last night, my boyfriend mentioned adopting 2 pups instead of just one (litter mates). What are the pros and cons to doing this??
If we do decide to go with two, is it better to have one male, one female? 2 males? 2 females? I was pretty set on my little girl, so I dont really think I would want 2 males.
Any thoughts, help, comments- are greatly appreciated!! thanks!!

I'd love to get two puppies at once!

Hi Daisy, no need to start two threads on the same subject - makes it harder for you and for people answering you to follow along.

If anyone would like to comment further, they can post here:
