Fun time for college friends

Up here at school, my friends and I like to pet puppies.  As childish as that sounds, it is actually a great free activity, especially for people like me who miss their pets that aren't able to come along for the ride of the college year.  You don't have to deal with all the responsibilities that are necessary when raising an animal, like buying food, veterinarian bills, or even dealing with all the fur that constantly gets scattered around in my house.  However, as cute as they are, I, along with Danielle, as she asked the lady about the Pomeranian she couldn't part with at the time, overheard her say, "You would have a lifetime warrantee."  It seems so weird that humans could have such a protection on animals.  I don't disagree with it, because I wouldn't have my pets if this didn't happen, but why treat them as if they are a car, or a computer?  Just sell the animal. Unless they have some amazing benefit to give, I really don't see the point, unless the saleslady was just stupid, not knowing what she was talking about.
