If you having to get a boy upsets you so much you obviously you really need to get a girl. I went through the pros and cons of getting a puppy vs an adult. One the puppy is raised where you can help develope some of its habits and training. An adult has already been potty trained (if its the right one) they should be used to a harness and leash (remember I'm not talking in terms of rescue) they seem to take new situations a little better then pups. A puppy is usually easier to train. But in the end its what you feel. If you don't automatically fall in love with the adult wait a little while. I know 4 1/2 months seem so far away but it really isn't. Just trust your heart. Right now it hurts but it will lead you in the right path. Obviously that sweet little pup wasn't meant for you but maybe she was meant to lead you your rightful companion!
