We are where we are supposed to be! Haven't you heard that phrase many times? Even in many ways? Well recently, it has become apparent that I am where I am supposed to be. From phone calls out of the blue of students wanting hypnosis training right down to being the right dog breeder encourage healing! Let me explain. A few weeks ago, I received an e-mail from a girl wanting information about my AKC Registered Yorkshire Terrier pups. We e-mailed back and forth for about 10 days. Her family budget was only $700 and my pups sell for $1500 and up. She negotiated well, and I finally agreed to let her have a male pup who was the largest of the litter for $750 (here in CA. the smaller the better, though I refuse to breed those unhealthy teacups by breeding runts to runts!) She decided that she really wanted a female so would keep searching. (I know that $750 for a registered Yorkie is impossible unless you go out of state or to a puppy mill!) Then I got an e-mail from Emily's father. He informed me that I had been negotiating with a 13 year old! I was a bit embarassed, and apologized for communicating with a child. He let me know that she had asked if she could e-mail with a "lady Dr." and he and her mother both knew and had approved. He also let me know that Emily had been promised a puppy as a reward for keeping her appointments with her Psychiatrist and taking her medication. Emily has OCD (the type that has her consistently washing her hands.) Now that she had been researching, they realized they would have to save longer, and budget more, and maybe would have enough when our next litter (next year) was born.
Well, I thought about it. I believed them. I also know that my puppy breeding is a hobby, and not so much about the money. So I spoke to my husband about it and we decided to let them have a female for $750. After a couple of e-mails later, they came to get a puppy. As I saw the happiness in Emily's eyes, and visited with her, her mom and 2 sisters, I knew that there is a reason we are where we were meant to be. Emily and I and her puppy (now named LILLY VICTORIA) had found each other as was meant to be. (And her parents actually paid me $1000 instead of the agree upon $750 because this was meant to be!)
