I wanted to comment in regards to owning mulitple dogs and the cost associated with this. I have been reading alot of threads where people are considering getting another dog but are worried about the additional cost. Well I'm here to tell you it can get quite expensive. For instance: 1) Cocoa had to go to the vet last week (slip disk) they think, cost overall $300.00, 2) 4 weeks ago Houdini got sick cost $300.00 3)New puppy getting fixed next week, cost $150.00... As you can see 750.00 gone within a month. Please, please think of this when you are thinking about adding more dogs to your household. I ended up getting a Pet Care Credit Card and it has been a lifesaver...
