There are cases of putting 2 female together each with a high drive for dominance and creating problems beyond the best dog handle. Play it safe and get a male. With both fixed, they settle into a patnership and usually do fine together. If you just must have have another female, try to get one lower in the pack order. If the breeder doesn't know what you are talking about, find one that does. Please consider rescue. Check www.petfinder.org or http://www.akc.org/breeds/rescue.cfm
