2 Puppies @ Once?

It's just as easy to train two at once as it is one, but it's a lot easier to train a new dog with an old dog.
If you're talking about little dogs, I'd say go for it, especially if you think you'll enjoy them. If they're big dogs, I'd train one first and add a puppy in a couple years. Big dogs tend to get big and dumb together and get a mind of their own (bad habits) if you can't spend lots of time with them.
It's not so much what will they do, as what do you have time for.
Let us know what kind of dog you're getting so I can live vicariously through you. I miss having dogs, bad.
