Yes, that's right. Basically, if you take good enough care of your current dog, you earn trainer points and with these new breeds become available for adoption. You can have up to three active dogs at a time. I knew for a while that I wanted my second dog to be a Beagle and that I'd call him Biscuit, and I finally got enough points for one today. I'm sure that there'll be lots of sniffing, but so far they've mainly just been doing that doggie ballet together. I'm planning to get a shih tzu for my third dog, though I still have several thousand more TPs to earn before I unlock them, and I don't yet know what I'm going to call it. Too bad there aren't any papillons in the game, or I could have gotten one and called it Crackers. Or Cracker...seven characters appears to the maximum.
