"Be careful what you wish for."  We've heard and said it how many times.  In Halo's case, it's so meaningful.  Our dog auction flyer arrived and after nervously scanning the list of upcoming auctions and breeds available, there it was - the dreaded information we cringe to read.  Three Havs were being auctioned and we made plans to attend. We will refer to ourselves as P, Q and C for ease of reading and anonymity.

P drove after work on Thursday evening, staying outside Chicago.  On Friday she picked up Q and they drove 10 hours to the auction site.  We both had not slept well; you get this nervous feeling in the pit of your stomach.  What shape will the puppies be in; will we be able to bid on them; can we win the bidding; but mostly we want to hold Havanese puppies driving home!  We have to get them and bring them home, we can't leave them to spend their lives in a mill breeding until they are so sick, weak or die from lack of medical attention.
