I did regret it... For about a week! We had 8 cats. (!) We went to the breeder to go pick out a Yorkie puppy. We couldn't decide between the boy and the girl. We were there for hours. From past experience, 2 kittens was a god send, they wore each other out. So we thought 2 puppies would be just as good. Then we got home. I almost immediately had that 'what have done feeling?' Lucy was all over the place, excited as she could be and a REAL handful. A huge dog in a 2lb body. I was overwhelmed. Our first dogs. What had we done?
We contacted the breeder the next day and "all sales were final"
We put a few ads up on the internet for Lucy and had a very few offers, but none that would even give us our money back ($700) which is all we were asking. We got some nasty emails about being dog traffickers (wtf?)
I explained in all honesty what had happened and i was being accused of making a business of reselling puppies... hm. Whatever.
I was so pissed at the nasty emails, and the pathetic chew down offers, I said screw it, we're keeping her. And I can't imagine life without her. She is areal pistol. 2 of her would be way TOO much. 2 Tuckers would be boring, he's a shy guy. 1 of each is just right.
The potty training bit is the absolute worst part, and even thats not so bad really. You just learn to live on less sleep. Somehow.
