awww, everyone's stories are so sweet!
Pippa was meant as a romantic gift, but this story takes a turn!
Yorkie baby Pippa was 12 weeks old when she was snatched from her momma and taken to the Wal-Mart parking lot in a small town in Arkansas. A boy called and said he wanted her for his girlfriend as a Christmas/Birthday gift. Pippa's "breeder" didn't ask any quetions, I guess she just wanted money. The boy showed up in an old beat up truck and paid $500.00 for Pippa and she went for a 2 and 1/2 hour ride in that old truck. It was old cold, December night when Pippa made it to the girlfriend's house. The boyfriend walked in the door and handed the girlfriend a tiny, wild-eyed yorkie. Of course she oooohed and ahhhhh'd and thank you'd. The girlfriend's parents did not have any pets except an old tom cat, and the boy didn't even ask the parents if a live puppy would be ok to give to their daughter. At first, the girlfriend's mom was upset....how dumb to come in here and give her a real puppy....mom was going to have to take care of it, you know....then she looked at baby Pippa and melted. Pippa was only content to be with the mom. Soon, Pippa and the girlfriends mom were inseparable. The mom couldn't go anywhere without little Pippa following. They were IN LOVE. This made the girlfriend kind of mad and jealous. In about a month, the girlfriend got tired of the boyfriend (he was dumb, anyway!) and told him to hit the road...she said, "I gave the Yorkie to my mom, anyway".
THE END
P.S. Looking back, I'm so glad for Pippa's sake that she has a good home. I often wonder how her brothers and sisters fared, being sold in a wal-mart parking lot. I fell in love with Pippa so much that I got Scout when Pipp was about a year old. I did research and found a reputable breeder who put me through an interview herself! |
