When we put the offer in on the other house, at the same time I had found a breeder, not too too far from where the house is, who breeds the breed of dogs I have been wanting. I had been wanting a lap dog for a couple of years now, and decided on a Pappillon.
 
So anyways, to make a long story short I got in touch with the breeder, they were expecting two or three batches of puppies this summer. Yes, they would take a deposit down for one pup from the 3 batches, even though I wasn't 100% positive we'd be moving. If something happened and we couldn't take the pup, our money would be refunded. The deposit was 250.00, so I took on a few extra custom orders to fund the deposit, so I wouldn't be taking from our family budget, and sent the deposit to the breeder.
 
Well, one batch of puppies ended up being miscarried, one pup at a time, over about a week. Very sad.
 
The other girl they had bred, ended up not taking. They knew this was a possibility because it was her first time being bred and you never know what will happen.
 
So, they ended up with one litter of 3 puppies.
 
Still, the breeder  held one for me with the understanding that if our house does sell, we won't be there to pick it up until the 1st week of August, when it's about 10 weeks old.
 
So because she knows we may not even end up moving, she's held back the best puppy, so she can be sure to find it a home, OR worst case scenario, keep it as a stud for herself.
 
Here's that puppy, MY puppy:

 

 
Isn't he just SOOOOOO Cute!?!? He's exactly the coloring I had wanted. I'm so sad right now though, because I had told her that if we didn't sell, or know some solid info, by the end of this month, I would give her the ok to sell him to someone else and just refund my deposit. 
 
And here we sit, June 24th.
 
To make matters worse, that offer we put in on the house also expires at the end of this month, so now we have to ask for an extension. We keep putting it off, hoping, and hoping, that maybe, just maybe, we'll sell soon, NOW. Maybe God is waiting to the last minute and that last minute hasn't quite arrived yet?
 
I don't know.
 
Anywho, that's my whine for the day.
 
Silly thing is, I don't know what I'm most upset about right at this moment, possibly loosing that house, or my puppy.
