Well, we were actually thinking about it this past fall. We had decided to give the fertility stuff another month or two and if I didn't get pregnant, we'd get a puppy. We were pretty much all set to start looking for a puppy when we found out we were pregnant with twins and thought a new puppy and twins was a bit much. Well, since my babies have gone on, we decided NOW was the right time!
One of my patients at my office has brought his little shih tzu puppy in a few times and I feel in love with it. So, I had done some research about shih tzu's and found out what a good companion dog they are. They like to be brushed and they like to go everywhere with you. Sounded like just what I needed! We had originally went to the breeders house to look at a female, Jasmine, but Harley choose me and how could I refuse that face?? Even my shrink thought it was a great idea to get a little dog. It'll really help me during the days because soemtimes I go hours on end without anyone coming in and I get lonely and sad so now I will have Harley to look after and love!
The husband of the breeder is a retired cop and rides a red harley davidson bike so he actually named him! The name fits and he knows it so I won't be changing it!

Thanks Melissa! This will be my first ever dog too as I'm also usually a cat person. However, I decided that I needed more of a companion that can go with me and he will definitely be spoiled!!

I'm so glad he is all yours now! Funny how the animals have a way of picking you instead of you picking them!!! I'm sure you two will have many years of love ahead of you!

Michele, you're right; Harley IS "just what [you] need." When I had my cancer scare and went into the hospital for a breast biopsy, I broke down afterwards on my front porch, sobbing uncontrollably. We had just gotten our new puppy, MacKenzie. We had a grown Westie -- Murphy -- but we wanted a companion for her to keep her company while we were at work. Anyway, those two doggies saw me crying, climbed up into my lap, and licked away my tears.
I'm here to tell you, you just can't beat that!
