How I Found My Sweet Boy, Gizmo 🤍 When I first reached out to Janna from Puddle Jumpers Shih Tzus, I never imagined how special this whole experience would become. From our very first conversation, Janna was so kind and genuine. We talked about what we were looking for in a puppy and the kind of life we wanted to give him. I told her about how much we love hiking, trail running, going to the beach, camping, and spending time outside, but also how important it was to us that our dog could be perfectly happy curled up on the couch with us. Then she told me about her little boy, Mickey. The more we talked, the more I felt like he might be the one. Janna answered every question, shared little details about his personality and routine, and made the whole process feel so personal. I could tell how much she loved her puppies, and that made trusting her with such a big decision so easy. And then came the day we picked up Gizmo. After talking about him, seeing pictures, and imagining what it would be like to have him home, suddenly I was holding my little boy in my arms. It was such a surreal feeling knowing that this tiny puppy I had been getting to know through Janna was finally ours. He went from being Mickey at Puddle Jumpers to being our sweet Gizmo—and somehow, almost immediately, he felt like he had always belonged with us. I’m so grateful for the relationship I built with Janna and for the trust she gave us in letting us take Gizmo home. She didn’t just help us find a puppy; she helped us find a little piece of our family. Gizmo is already so much more than a dog to me. He’s my little shadow, my adventure buddy, my cuddle bug, and my new best friend. I didn’t know I was looking for him until I found him. And now I can’t imagine our life without him. 🤍🐾
