So my roommate decided on a bit of a whim that she needed a puppy. She's been working in the dog industry for a few years so she basically knew what she was getting into, but still, she literally went from "I think I might want to get a puppy?" to actually bringing home the puppy in about 4 days.
Anyway, when she was looking for a puppy, I had suggested a breeder that produces exactly the kind of dog she's looking for, and happened to have a few puppies available. She asked what the breeder charges, and I told her I think about $900-$1000. My roommate said absolutely not, because she can't spend $900 to get a dog. Which makes me .
So she found a puppy on Petfinder, talked to the foster, and brought the puppy home on the same day. That first day at home, the puppy was in an accident (long story, but it was very much an accident), and ended up with a broken leg. My roommate spent, get this, $900 on the vet bills. The first day she brought home the puppy.
Now, in NO WAY am I happy that the puppy got hurt, and she's absolutely OK now... just, the whole situation seemed a bit ironic to me and I thought you guys would get it and be amused as well.
