[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I regret mine constantly.  They are loving, easy to care for, and sweet animals.

It's the expense that is killing me.  I have two dogs and my average annual expense is $2500 per dog.  That goes up dramatically if I go on a longer vacation.  Putting the dogs in a boarding facility that I like is about $40 per dog per night.  It often ends up being cheaper to fly my parents to town (from Canada) to care for the pets rather than board them.

I was divorced about 4 years ago, before that I had plenty of money to pay for all the expenses.  I love my dogs and they bring me a ton of joy, but I won't get more dogs when these ones die of old age.[/quote]

we have 2 dogs we got when we had children.  I love them but they are a lot of work and I just don't have the time.  The kids are gone, we are separated, the dogs just make a mess of of the house, our backyard is a lot of mud, especially this morning.  I never have enought time from work, barely getting by without getting fired.  and expense is also like $1500 per dog for just checkups, heartworms, flea and tick medicines.

if you both work don't do it.[/quote]
