Growing up all I wished for was a dog, a cute little furball.... In 2013, after my graduation results were announced, my parents (who were never ok with me having pets!) told me to choose any pet that I wished for and, they promised to get it for me.
Immediately my search for a hypoallergenic pup started. The first time I saw Smurfy, it was an immediate connection and I knew that is going to be my fur baby. As soon as I held him, I was overwhelmed with puppy kisses. After bringing him home, I was perpetually mesmerised by his goofiness. Most nights, I would feel scared to sleep thinking what if he wanted something or was scared and what if I wasn't around to make him feel comfortable?
After Smurfy coming into my life, within few months I had to leave for Pune to pursue my Post-graduation. I missed him terribly. Every weekend I would make it a point to visit Mumbai (home) just to spend time with him. It was a rough 2 years where we got to spend very little time with each other, but it was totally worth it.
