Hi all! So, I just bought a puppy in a span of less than a week. Impulsive decision? Maybe? BUT! But, I really fell in love with this pupper. I was randomly browsing Kijiji 2 weeks ago—then by accident or maybe by fate, I stumbled upon this ad. I saw a grayish/silvery pupper up for adoption that is two and half away from where we live. The breed? Samoyed Chowchow mix. Now, I’ve been wanting to buy a Samoyed since it’s my dream dog. The thing is, they are very expensive and I haven’t seen any Samoyed pups that are up for adoption within the province. And, since Covid, the prices of puppies went up. I even asked someone I know that have a SamoyedxChow doggo how much they got theirs and holy smokes! The price difference is really apparent.
What made me buy? I was telling my fiancé that if he told me no, and to focus with wedding and house expenses instead and to get a puppy once we have our own place—I would’ve probably ignored this ad. However, he told me to “get it” and “it’s up to you if you want to get it”. So on the 29th of August, I messaged this lady if the pup is still available. When she said yes—I inquired a little bit more until she told me to come over and visit the pup before putting on the deposit. Before she offered that to me, I was already decided to put on a deposit to get the puppy. By Monday, 30th of August, my fiancé and his sister accompanied me to see this puppy. Early on that day, I already showed the pup’s picture to my parents. I kind of gave them a heads-up that I am planning to get this pup. My dad was okay, as usual and my mom was not. She discouraged me and told me to save the money for more important things. But my decision was fixed. I am going to get this pup no matter what.
Before we get to him, my fiancé told me not to make a rash decision and not to put the downpayment right away. Sleep on it first, as he says. I told him that I did slept on it already, and even though I wait another day—my decision would remain the same. The pup’s name was Poh-Boh, we were told that we could change the name, of course. I already thought of a name before we could even see the puppy. Sylvie. But then, my fiancé does not really like it. He told me that it does not fit the puppy. So after we saw the puppy that night, I had to think hard what name fits him the most. My fiancé refused to think of a name because according to him: it’s not human. I told him all the name that I liked. Then at the end I was like: Bullet? As the pup’s coat colour reminded me of silver bullet. He agreed to it right away.
We’ve decided to pick Bullet after our camping—Tuesday, Sept. 7th And all I could think about is him. I was excited and couldn’t wait to get him. We spent $$$ for his stuff because we shopped in Petsmart — and that place is like a high-end shopping mall for pets. Then Sunday, we decided to pick him up Monday instead.
He is the cutest!! Nakakagigil! He’s so cuddly that I wish he’d never grow big and stay as a puppy forever. But then again, I can’t stop time. Anyway, here’s a pic from his instagram account LOL Please give it a follow 🤣
Well, this post has been long overdue. Enjoy the rest of your week! Stay safe! Ciao!
