We'd looked here and there. I've checked into different breeds. Been hesitant because of the cats I have and wondering if a dog in the house would upset the apple cart. Also dogs aren't as independent (good and bad to that).
Today we went into Petco for crickets for my son's bearded dragon. At the doorway was a woman and her teenage son with a carry-kennel and a dog on a leash. Someone was holding a tiny black puppy. Normally I wouldn't do anything but "awwwww". Something made me walk over.
Turned out the woman was not someone trying to pawn off mutts at the pet store door. She's a registered breeder who had also worked at Petco as a groomer. The 4 pups were on their way home from their first vet visit.
I asked her which one was most active. She reached in the carrier and pulled out the pup in the picture. Well that face melted my heart. We got her address, went home and got my oldest son (had the younger one with me), and off we went.
It's fate. The woman lives 8 blocks from me. She's now doing dog grooming from her home. I for sure know where to go for grooming.
