I say this sort of jokingly but sort of not: what sparked the change was basically a kind of stockholm syndrome 😂
In September of 2020 I moved in with my partner and his dad, and his dad had a dog named Gracie. I was extremely apprehensive about this (because: not dog person!) and what happened is that I was living in a new-to-me town in the depths of a pandemic where I didn't know a single other person besides Gent and his dad (who both worked outside the house together all day, most every day) and I was just... alone... with Gracie... over and over, and eventually I started to love her?? God, do I love her.
When we moved out I felt heartbroken, even though we only live a mile down the street and I have Gracie here a ton, but that lead us to adopt Mona, which lead to adopting Lucy, and now I simply love all dogs forever and ever the end :)
