Went to a Dachshund breeder today over in Alabama. She had a ton of cute Dahcshunds, and put a deposit down on a 2 week old puppy, gonna go pick him up in 5~6 weeks after he's had his shots and things, and the breeder verifies that he's ok after shots etc.
Looking forward to it. It was kind of awkward. My Dad's idea. We get there, see the puppy. His mom was like, "WHO THE *** ARE YOU?! GET THE *** AWAY FROM MY BABY!" course she was barking, I just assume that's what she meant. The breeder lifted him up and out, he was away from the other puppies, exploring their enclosure. He looked right at me, right into my eyes. He has a white spot on his chest that is almost exactly like the dog I just lost last month. It gave me this weird deja vu feeling, the way he looked at me directly with his tiny little eyes. He wasn't afraid in the slightest.
I know it's probably just some psychological mechanism in my brain tying together similarities, but I can't help but feel a little superstitious. You know, about that whole dog reincarnation thing.
