Buttt even if her birthday money pays to buy the puppy there aer lots more expenses.
I have to get my puppy spayed next month and my vet charges close to $500.00...... which with al of her shots and puppy vet checks, I have now paid more than what I paid for her (I paid $1000.)
ANNNNNDDDD they need their teeth professionally cleaned once a year which runs around $300.
There are just so many other expenses when you get a puppy, that even if she pays for the puppy by herself, her husband is still going to be involved in later expenses.
and not to mention they already have two other furbabies..... |
$500 for spaying?! I just had Sydney spayed and I paid $180. That covered diagnostic testing prior to surgery to make sure she was good for the procedure, the surgery, three baby teeth being pulled, nails trimmed, and pain pills. There is some upfront costs such as her crate, toys, clothes, and vaccinations, but she really hasn't been that costly. What would have been costly is if I didn't have her after our motorcycle accident. She has brought joy back to my life. You can't put a price on joy.
