While on vacation in South Beach, Miami this past November I got to see this breed in person. I instantly fell in love! Everyone had them down there. I looked at a tiny little girl in a pet store, but she was also being looked at by someone else. I got to hold her while the first lady looking ran out to her car. The lady decided to buy her and I had to hand her back. I sobbed like a 7 year old cause I just thought I had to have that dog. Came back home and the DH said "NO DOGS". Disappointingly, I put it to rest. A week later he tells me he will buy me one for Xmas. WOO HOOO...and Sophie arrives in my arms less than a week later. That's the "how". The "why". I don't know. I've never owned a dog before, even as a child. There were five kids in the house...no room for pets, as my parents would say.
Now, I'm working on the DH to let me get a Biewer. Since Sophie proved to be challenging to potty train and has a "chew" problem, he has said even louder and stronger "NO DOG". But oooohhhhh I want another so badly.....
