The Search
Apparently, I was not the only one looking for a dog during the pandemic. It was nearly impossible to find a puppy from the shelter. Also, I never got any response, and the couple I did turned me down for adoption.
Eventually I looked on websites a friends recommended, and that lead me to “Roxy”
Finding Roxy
Not long after I started searching for dogs for sale, I came across a listing that had a cute 3 month old Mountain Curr – Australian Cattle Dog mix named Roxy. I wasted no time reaching out to the owner, and we arranged and transport for later that week.
- $700 for Roxy
- $400 for transport from Ohio to New York
With just a few days before Roxy’s arrival, I started to scramble to get my place ready. There was a rush of anticipation, and relief that I am done with all this searching. This is really happening!
I ended up buying a bunch of things – dog food, leash, collar, crate. Didn’t know what I was doing so I ended up buying everything too big.
