Ooops

a few days ago i told my dad i wanted a dog.

what did he do?

he went on KSL and was like  oh happy birthday child, lets get you a god. so eventually he was like "okay here's one..contact her and see what's up" 

so because i've been craving a puppy for YEARS and YEARS and FINALLY 

i was getting a puppy!
a 12 week old  purebred yorkie named Brandon. who i was going to retain to answer to Chester.

so what did i do? i emailed this lady Vela Fisher about the puppy i want.

she tells me that they're on some Baptist mission in Switzerland and it's too demanding to keep up with all the care the dogs need. They'll cover the travel fees and everything as long as their dogs have a home.

she asks for 25 dollars so we could get all the names on the paperwork changed. so i begged my mom for the 25 dollars and the okay to get this puppy.

when i told my dad he was sketched out about the whole thing. then i pulled the whole "you have no faith in humanity!!! the glass is half FULL" card..then he was like okay fine..

so i got a money order thinking that if i gave them the reference number they could cash it, but a money order and a money gram are totally different. who knew?

so the dog's name is supposedly under my name. then i got an email from "aircargoeuropa" and they were like "hey if you don't pick your dog up we come after you." 

and i freaked out. i mean what the heck?? i'm not even in switzerland! 

then i get another email and it was like "you need to tell the sender to come back to the airport because we need 1,500 dollars before the dog can fly."

and i was like whaaaat?

so i sent the email back to this lady and she was like oh ya.. we took care 900.00. you need to come up with the 600. by tonight. 

so being naive and puppy starved, i begged and begged. 

the parents said no. 

i only have 200 dollars. when i told this to vela she was like oh we came across the rest. and i was like ooooo! chester is MINE!
then they were like okay. wire your money down to Mexico City and we'll get it and send out dog.
and i was about to when i had a funny feeling about it. so i called the moneygram people and told them i had a money order and what i was trying to do. granted i was almost crying at the thought of 1. my dog all alone at the airport. and 2. the cargo company being like oh hey we're coming for you
so the lady i talked to was super sweet and told me that she was certain this was a scam..and to call the local FBI to make sure
so i did.. and i talked to some man who also said not to worry about it, and that it sounded like a scam to him too
then i called britt and told her everything.
she agreed.
but now i'm puppyless and sad...and i have to tell my dad that he was right. i think that's the hardest part of all this.
basically,i hate ksl.
