Woman's Story of Adopting Jack Russell Puppy on a Whim Has People Delighted

When people first think about adding a fur baby to the family, they usually spend time researching different breeds, costs and what items they need to have in the house. But other times, it's a spur of the moment event and before you know it, you're a pet owner.

The latter recently happened to TikTok user @nicolaabbott. She was on Trade Me, a New Zealand online auction website, when she found the most adorable Jack Russell Terrier puppy. One might say it was love at first sight because soon enough, she was a dog mom. Check it out!

O.M.G. Stop it! We're so in love with this story and how she adopted him on such a whim. Sometimes the best things in life are never planned and we have a feeling she's going to learn that very quickly with her new puppy.

"That pup will now be your whole life and you won't regret it," said @jodienemhenningse. Retweet! We don't think we've ever heard of anyone every regretting a puppy. They bring so much joy into our lives, which is why people always say we don't deserve dogs! @whos.haileyx added, "Best decision you have ever made."

Another TikTok user, @lindseygimson, wrote, "When you know, you know! Saw a photo of my baby and she was home two weeks later." Exactly! And sometimes the pets pick you. That's what happened when we adopted our cat. There were so many adorable ones we wanted to bring home with us, but we instantly felt connected to ours now. She picked us! And for this TikToker, the world knew she needed this Jack Russell Terrier because otherwise she wouldn't have seen him online. The world works in mysterious ways!
