Welcome to the forum! Unfortunately, there is no easy answer to your question. Dogs and bengals can get along. Are two bengals better than one? If they are both brought home as kittens (siblings are best), they almost always do okay with each other. Know that going to a new environment and being taken from their mom and siblings can be a bit stressful for kittens. As for your dog, he will appear as a giant to the kitties. Many dogs find kittens to be toys and will want to play with them -- the kitties, if they aren't familiar with dogs, may become timid and scared. You want your kitties to be confident and outgoing.
No one can say what will happen with one bengal and a dog or two bengals and a dog. Things can go swimmingly well or you may be pulling your hair out over all the activity and action that is going on. I think it's wonderful when one loves animals so much and want to open their hearts and home to a variety of pets. Know that ALL the pets need attention and play time. And three versus two versus one is a big deal. Bengals in particular are attention seekers and are quite demanding cats. You need to prepare yourself for a huge change in your household regardless of getting one bengal or two. Two bengals can become best buddies even with the dog, but patience and time may be required.
