id definitely have no hesitation adding a third dog in your situation.
id just let them sleep in another room

I have an average older type 3 bedroom house, decent garden, and 5 malamutes live in it, in fact they live only in the back half of the house, and I have no problems at all, they all have their own favorite laying down area and take up hardly any space, well thats my oppinion. lol.

NOPE - my male leo wants to be everywhere i am, even in the toilet.

I only have a wee mid-terrace 2 bed house but at the mo, i have a male and female leonberger, my wee gsd pup and the gsd i am rehoming. As long as they have space then i'm happy - i can just curl up with them

I'm in Morganstown so I think I'm nearest! Good idea we could meet in the car park at the top , I don't know about a burger from the van though, unless they sell veggie burgers!

In a word ... yes That is, if you allow it Mine like to be where I am, but from young pups I tend to occasionally restrict their movements with baby gates and doors so they can't follow me to, say, the loo.

We have a 2 bed bungalow and have the 3 setters, wouldn't matter if I lived in a 6 bed mansion, they also would want to be in the room with me, either on my lap or at my feet... awwww to be loved and I think we have space for another

I think as long as you have room for the dogs to lie down comfortably and somewhere for them to toilet then the number you have really only depends on how many you can care for and exercise properly.

For me that is five medium size dogs with an absolute maximum of 6 (if someone visits, get one back for re-homing etc).

I live in a 3 bedroom suburban house with 60 x 25 foot garden.
