Dogs

HEY I MIGT BE GETTING A DOG, BUT MY PARENTS ARE A LITTLE HARD….Ive been perswaiding them, mom told me to do some reserch about the yearly amount for health care and just care…If anyone here has a dog 1st what kind, and 2nd whats the care price about…..

If you get a puppy, the first year is rather pricy, due to all the vaccinations they require that first year. After that, they only need booster shots once a year, so the price gets better. What I would do, is call some of your local vets. Many will offer a "package" deal with a puppy for all it’s vaccinations, rabies shot and even spay or neutering. You could also check to see if you have a low cost clinic around you.

   The average yearly cost to care for a dog is:
   about $1,350 yearly: or $110 a month.

   If you contact a vet, there are pet insurances available.
   I’m going to look into it cause I have two dogs and sometimes things happen and it gets expensive.
