My girlfriend used to work at a cafe in Los Angeles and there happened to be a pet shop with lots of puppies in the front window. I couldn't help but go up to the window to check them out. There were some shuh-tzus, maltese, and yorkies. The yorkies were so cute and I wanted to go inside and buy one on the spot. I thought at the time that buying a dog from a pet store is better than getting one from a breeder.. didn't know why. Good thing I didn't get the dog on the spot and decided to go home and do some internet research. Found out about all those terrible puppy mills. I found a nice breeder and shelled 1500 for Lucky. The decision to buy a dog.. for me.. was really arbitrary. |
