Wondering how much it costs to own a dog?
If you’re reading this, maybe you’re thinking about getting a dog, or maybe you already have one (or several). Maybe you’re reading this to see if your spending matches up with others, like mine.
I used to have four dogs, and now I have three, so I’m quite familiar with how much dogs can cost. Costs really added up, and some years were worse than others (especially when they got old), so it’s important to find ways to save money when you can.
In this article, we’re going over things like:
- Costs of getting a dog
- Ongoing necessary costs to keep your dog healthy
- Insurance options and whether it’s worth it
- If it’s cheaper to adopt a dog
- Dog expenses people forget about
And more!
