Have you already started your search for a reputable breeder?  
 
Since money is not an issue for you, I'd hope you will spend your money wisely and go the route of a breeder to find a good quality puppy vs. the one I chose (before I knew better...) and not contribute to the Puppy Mills by purchasing a puppy from a Pet Store. 
I'm paying the price for that mistake now with my Bella who's developed CT! 
 
 
I still vote YES for you to have a puppy and I can't imagine you not following the right path to puppy ownership but, the Mother in me just has to say all of the above! 
 
 
Keep us posted on your quest for puppy love...
