In Search of Another Friend
The search for another dog was very interesting. My aunt read in the paper about this professional pom breeder in Rockford, Illinois. So we called her up and set up a time to see the pups. Well we went out looking for a decent house with some sort of play pen for dogs. But to our dismay we ended up at an old run down house with is very steep drive way. We parked the car in the drive and put on the emergency brake just in case, so the car wouldn't roll backwards.(That is how steep it was) Well we went up to the house and saw an air conditioner, and thinking to myself,"yes, it is nice and cool inside." An older woman answered the door. We walked in and all the sudden I couldn't breathe! There were so many dogs in little baby play pens and the smell of cats, must, And mildew, it was overpowering. After we looked at the dogs awhile we left. I get back to the car and I told my aunt I couldn't breathe the whole time I was in there, and she said the same. We left disappointed and hard of breathing.
P.S. If you were wondering, it wasn't cool inside. It was just as hot as outside.

So sorry that it did not go well for you and that you did not find a new friend. Sounds like a pretty bad experience!
Yes, that place was pretty disgusting, wasn't it?
Sounds like a puppy mill to me. Am very glad you didn't get one from there.
Sounds like an awful place! It just makes you want to take them all home with you! Sorry that you didn't get a new friend.
Sounds like a wretched place! Sorry you didn't find a new friend there - but I think that just means s/he is just out there waiting for you two to meet up! It just wasn't the right place or time. You should report that nasty place you were at - can't be a good place for those poor doggies!
Good thing you didn't get a dog from that place. Who knows what type of diseases those animals might have. It's so disgusting for people to hoard animals.
