We paid nothing for our Teddy because he was a RESCUE dog that was abused by previous owners. He ran away 13 times. After being vetted by Golden Retriever Rescue, (there are rescues for all breeds of dogs on the internet in your State), so I am ready to pay whatever is needed.
Teddy's health coverage is $44 a month because of a pre-existing Thyroid condition. Some operations go into the thousands. Teddy is covered by Healthy Paws Insurance which is run by a non-profit pet owners foundation. You may use the licensed vet or your choice. Dogs and cats under six years old with no preexisting conditions run about $30 a month.
"How about a Dog Lover's Thread?"
Something I read about ten years ago suggested if a woman wants a hubby, to look for a man who loves dogs, over cats. The reason was, men who preferred dogs, would be more loyal and affectionate with a deeper capacity for loving women, than those who favored cats .
Men who preferred cats over dogs were demonstrably less affectionate with women, if they indeed, liked relationships with women at all
I never forgot that and started noticing men with one or the other great little 4-paws, and came to the conclusion that the article had been accurate, as it pertained to the men I came to know.
The men who liked neither breed, as a pet, weren't good partner material at all.
Maybe things have changed and men are more comfortable having cats, they can't control, while still capable of deeply loving women.
Do dogs suffer from depression?
Depression in Dogs: Symptoms, Causes, Treatments, and More
First Paragraph. Maybe youve just moved, or youve brought home a new baby. Out of the blue, your usually energetic pooch is withdrawn and listless. Could your dog be depressed? Yes, say experts. And, depression in dogs isnt so different from depression in people.
Last Paragraph. Dogs pick up on our emotions, so if the owner has died, the dog could be responding to the grief of others, Beaver said. Or the dog may not be getting the attention hes accustomed to, which is stressing him out.
Today is Diatanatious Earth day.
After an internet investigation of ways to prevent fleas and ticks, the nursery suggested Diatanatious Earth which basically kills parasites safely. Basically, it is shards of shells from the bottom of an ocean or stream. The owner of our local nursery said she had traveled to Santa Domingo and picked up a parasite. Three weeks of Diatanatious Earth in her Orange Juice and the parasite was gone.
Diatanatious Earth can be purchased on the internet for around $25 for 10 pounds delivered. If it rains on your yard, you probably will need to apply.
Every time. Every time I see it, I laugh out loud.

To me that was the bonus for getting Teddy, constant entertainment! We bought a used couch at Goodwill ($25) and shampooed it ($30) and Teddy can sit on it to look out the front window. Sitting on Teddy's sofa is "FAMILY FUN TIME." Today marked 21 days with Teddy, and we put the oriental rugs back down. Teddy knows how to behave in the house.
Boxers are total clowns.
