two dogs versus one dog

For people with 2 dogs?
I have a 7 month old puppy. A 4 year old dog of a similar breed and opposite gender wandered into a friend of a friend’s yard with a broken leg (fixed now) and it needs a home. I haven’t met the dog yet, but I want to know what you considered before you adopted a second dog, and the benefits and difficulties of caring for two dogs versus 1 dog. A detailed answer would be much appreciated!
All of the advice has been so helpful—thanks so much! I have a lot more to consider now…
well,we dont have 2 dogs but 6 ( 2 females 4 males)
we are doing well with 6..
it depends on how well the other dog is compatible with the other and if you can support them (food,bills,attentionwise)..
if they are opposite in gender, make sure you get them both fixed..
