He had never cost us a penny other than the usual shots and neutering.

The leg was broken in 5 places and had to be done by specialists. Damn expensive but how can you put a price on love?

He was with us for another 4 years after that so I think of the expense as @ $110/per year. He was soooo worth it.

You have no idea how long this beagle will be in your house. He may be there for many more years. Enjoy, love, savor the moments while you can....


I'm not a believer but blessings on your (potential) adoption.
