I disagree about "free" pets. I run a rescue. We charge an adoption fee. Basically it covers the veterinary expenses the rescue incurs for the animal, nothing is free. Even if you did get a pet for free, they are EXPENSIVE! Heart worm medicine, quality dog food and veterinary care don't come cheap. If you are looking to save money, don't get a pet in the first place. You are looking at conservatively $1000 annually for 15-20 years.
Thank you so much for clarifying that and mentioning it!!!
I agree with you totally. I got the impression he was talking about not paying for a specific breed and papers. I think it's so foolish to spend big bucks on an animal that's bred when there are already enough dogs and cats around without breeding.
We are very into getting animals from the local shelter or rescue group. My neighbors have also done so and I have a best friend who is a foster home for many dogs she's taken in over the years until they get their "forever home." The organization she works for has fees also.
The one we volunteer for here in our county also has fees. It's a wise thing and one way to make sure people will be able to provide what the animal needs on a daily basis.
If people can't pay for care, they don't need to have a pet that will not truly be part of the family.
