Am I the only one who feels this way? Just curious... |
I guess I got a little attached when I so Momiji who was 1/3 the size of Coco. I just couldn't believe my eyes! She almost looked like a hamster...and at 14 weeks? WOW!!!
I just thought that was amazing!!
To be honest, I am more frustrated with the size the breeder told me she would be and the price I paid for her. But I guess this is my fault and should have done more research. This is my first puppy and first real pet, so I just wanted things to be in the "as expected" scenario. But I am very happy with her regardless of her size.
I agree with you though of the constant worriness of having a small pup. I wouldn't be able to enjoy all the things I enjoy with Coco, such as running on the beach and squeezing her harder, dancing with her....it's great!
I'm looking forward on seeing her grow up and change colors. She's getting prettier every time I look at her.
