Image via WikipediaBoy was totally and absolutely smitten with her. Kittens and mittens smitten even (Did that even make sense?!?) So as a token of appreciation of years of devoted service Boy decides to give her a chance to do something that (as I have been told) just about every girl aspires to do; be a mom.
Fortunately Boy had some sense and was not talking about a baby carriage before marriage, but instead was talking about a puppy (Even being smitten didn't make him think of kittens it seems) . It seems Boy knew someone that engaged in the trafficking of aforementioned types of animal (fully legally of course) and proceeded to buy one and lovingly transport said creature to dearly beloved.
Now the icing on the cake is the small, tiny, insignificant little detail that Boy is a moderate Cynophobic. So this was a a real test of true love for Boy. One realises this even more so when one hears that boy was driving through Nugegoda junction and Highlevel road at peak traffic hours with new family member happily dancing around in his lap. Boy was only scared enough to have half a dozen near misses and didnt actually manage to make contact with another vehicle. The puppy would have to wait awhile to see how humans impersonate dogs.
So boy and dog actually made it to girls home in one piece. To borrow a phrase from Angel, Boy was shaken and not stirred like a Higland yoghurt. Pup couldn't care less. Unfortunately Girls parents did. You see girl already had 2 canine companions so this new best friend would not be getting the proper care he deserves. Needless to say boy was crestfallen to say the least, but of course you only argue with in-laws not "in-laws-to-be" so with pup in hand made a hasty exit and after depositing new friend with his parents at his place, went in search of a new home for the little critter.
If the icing on the cake was mentioned above, this would be the topping. You see Boys parents are extremely Cynophobic. So being kindhearted and scared to death by this little critter, proceeded to lock puppy inside house with a generous portion of food and water available, and spent the better part of the day walking around outside till boy came back!
Of course it all ends well in the end. A friend of a friend agreed to buy the pup and give it the home it needed. At one point, Boy was even willing to give it away free at considerable cost to his wallet (as a early 20's guy with mediocre salary and parents who are NOT filthy rich and a girlfriend, his wallet doesn't amount to much anyway) . So he's happy at how things turned. Think there was a tear in his eye though. You cant help but bond after going through these things together.
What I still cant figure out is where the hell he got Rs.45,ooo for that Doberman pup.....

:( too bad for the boy...
Surprises are nice, but when it comes to gifting pets, better to ask the person. Pets are like children, a lot of commitment involved, and the receiver might not be too happy about it.
BTW does that puppy in the pic look a bit too high? or then again maybe it's just me :P
Cheers
I adore doggies!!!!!!!
I'm with Azrael... when it comes to gifting pets, you gotta be real sure that it's right..:)
