Like cats as well as dogs but there is no way to overcome my allergic reaction to them. We had a golden doodle that I would characterize as the “best dog ever” despite it taking 4-5 years for her to settle down. I miss our daily walks and her always cheerful greeting even as she suffered from cancer.
We recently stopped at a Petco and got sidetracked by all the cute puppies in the cages. We don’t have the time/lifestyle for a dog right now but after admiring all of them one stood out for her friendly demeanor and I had the employee bring her to one of the cubicles. A female Havanese I believe it was. She was romping around in the little room playful as all get out but when I picked her up onto my lap she was quiet and sweet. I asked how much just out of curiousity and the girl says 2850 and oh but they come with a welcome pack blah blah.
Well I was shocked for a few seconds. I knew she didn’t mean $28.50 lol but I had no clue they were charging almost 3 THOUSAND bucks for dogs these days. I actually find it unethical tbh.
