re: How much do you spend on your loyal companion each year?

I pay whatever it takes to keep mine healthy, happy and living long lives.

Couple of thousand a year on the best dog food (poultry free).

Couple of thousand a year on vet bills, regular checkups, toys, training, etc.

Spent nearly $3k enclosing three acres, around the farm house, with an invisible fence and three collars.

Spent another $1500 (invisible fence) enclosing the property around the lake house.

Spent another $1500 (invisible fence) enclosing a half acre around the house down in Jupiter.

Spend approx $1200 a year on Simparica Trio.

Mine are all in the house right now but my female GSD, given to me by a service dog veteran organization, she doesn't let me out of her sight. She's laying by my feet right now.
