Wife wants to adopt either a coton de tulear or a cavapoo puppy but don’t seem to have a whole lot breeders near NJ/NY. Any suggestions aside from just buying online? Really want to make sure we do it right. TIA!

Have you looked at rescues or shelters? Many have pure breds.

Agree. Major pet peeve.

So you want to buy a dog

Omg. We have a coton. There is a good breeder we found in recently years from extensive research in WA (we are in WA) I have in my back pocket so in case we want a second one. It’s called “a touch of class cotons”. They have a fb page and they had a litter in August. They only do one litter a year or something.

Our original breeder passed away so couldn’t go back to her.

Purchasing a dog is not “adopting.”

If you are wanting to go this route versus legitimate adoption, under absolutely no circumstances should you ever, ever purchase a dog online. It is one of the most irresponsible and reproachable, not to mention straight-up stupid, things you can do. Second would be purchasing a dog/animal from a pet store (e.g. Petland to that neighborhood shop that always has the ~cutest~ pups in plastic boxes in the window).

The thought of either honestly makes my stomach ache. Do the due diligence and educate yourselves before making any moves. It is your obligation committing to a lifetime of your new family member.

Networking question here. A retired partner at the firm I used to work out reached out to me recently about attending an afternoon during the week (b4 4/30) with one of his long time clients. The partner and I have kept in touch since I joined my new firm and I feel like his invitation is a great networking opportunity since the client (who I have worked with before) is on a number of boards. Torn as how to request off as an S3. Could materialize to nothing but could be good for reconnecting.

Do you always wash your hands after petting your dogs? I got a new puppy and am constantly washing hands and trying to be as sanitary as possible. I'm simply to grossed out if I don't especially since I found out my puppy has worms.

Hi,
Need some advice. My pet had been eating his kebble food on a consistent basis. Then I introduced a bit of raw chicken into his kebble and loved having it even more. But now I'm realizing that if I don't add chicken, he just doesn't eat his regular kebble food. What should I do? (Don't want to feed chicken every day)
