BTW: You really shouldn't have to pay $400 for the dog. That's ridiculous. The owner should be happy that you're willing to adopt & spay. The dog is NOT fully AKC accredited - so she should NOT have that cost!!!! Frankly, the dog is a mutt by accredidation standards.
Go to a shelter. Fee will likely be under $200 (which goes to support the shelter.) And you'll find the perfect additional pet.
Good luck.
