Josh and I decided to go to Petsmart just to look around and get ideas on stuff for our upcoming addition and to get something for Bamm for Christmas...
There was a giganormous tent outside with TONS of rescues in the area and a huge adoption event going on. Just for the hell of it we went inside.
There were so many dogs there and a couple handfuls of rescue pups. We played with this adorable little deaf aussie that fell in love with my husband and cried when we walked away... there was also a litter of cattle dog mixes... they honestly looked mixed with aussie as well and there was one little light brown and white one with tipped ears (like my Bamma's ears) that just melted my heart. Josh fell in love with her as well and he wanted us to adopt her right then and there. The little pup licked my face for a few minutes and then let out a big yawn and fell asleep in my arms... damnitttt....
I'm so torn. I really want a papillon, but at the same time... I just don't know. I wouldn't mind having another dog Bamm's size either since he'd be able to play a lot more with a bigger dog than a little one... Josh reminded me that we like to do a lot of hiking and a lot of camping and he really wants me to look for a dog that we'd both really enjoy even though the dog is going to be mine moreso.
I kind of want to go back and talk to the rescue more about this pup. I think they already adopted the mom out... it was a pregnant mom that was rescued and had the litter in the foster home.
By the way... the little girl that handed this pup to me and told me that the pup fit so perfectly in my arms looked EXACTLY like a younger version of Stefanie (Nolu)....
I do have the money to cover the adoption fee and then some so if I wanted to I could honestly probably adopt that puppy today... but... we're moving into the house in a week or so and there are two other dogs that are living there and will be living there until mid-late january so I probably should hold off so we don't have 4 dogs in the house at one time... and I did tell myself I wanted a smaller dog anyway right? So... how come I can't get this little cattle dog out of my head? I've had a cattle dog before and funny enough my dog that I had growing up that died a couple of months before I got Bamm was an aussie/cattle dog mix which is exactly what these pups look like and she was an AMAZING dog.
frick... help? please?
