@tsarstepan,
That's exactly what it was for us. We were surprised to walk into our pet store and find they were having an adoption day. We weren't planning on going home with another pet, but everyone here can atest that I'm a sucker for animals. We were actually looking at another dog when at the other end of the room someone was handing Bodhi BACK to the adoption agent. Apparently they were not interested, but we ran over and snagged him. It's been bliss ever sice.
In fact he's right here hoping the food on my plate will jump off to him if he stares at it hard enough.
