Pet Store

Last Monday, Grant took off in the afternoon to play with Brielle and me.  It was raining.  What to do?

Bingo!  Pet Store!  We love visiting the pet store and in my case pretending that I love animals.  Don't get me wrong I like animals.  I grew up with an outside dog.  Outside.  He came in maybe 2 times, and both times it was a blizzard.  Even then he was only allowed in the foyer.  Therefore inside animals and I just don't mix. 

So we were at the pet store...Brielle picked out a cute black puppy.  A little petting room opened up.
We all went in.  The puppy curled up in Brielle's lap.  This same puppy had been jumping around in his cage and biting his bunk mate's ear.  He was still.  Content.  For a moment fifteen minutes, I was captivated by how good this puppy was with Brielle. Then I heard the words, "Can I have this puppy?"  For a moment nano second I thought 'yes, you can totally have this puppy'.  "Sir, can you tell us how much this puppy costs?"


$1,600.00

Smack!  Pinch!  Reality Check!  Hello!  Screeeeeching Halt!

Thank you for letting us pet this adorable puppy. 
Mommy and Daddy will "think about it".

  3. If you decide to go ahead with a dog I would highly recommend looking into a rescue organization. Much cheaper and you'll be giving a dog a home who really needs one. Plus it will already be potty trained!

  4. I did a little research on rescues today, but most seem to require a phone call, which I currently can't do! So I'll make a few informational phone calls when we get back. :-)
