echoing what swimmer said... unconditional love is worth every penny, that being said, people should realize that pet ownership, like having kids, is taking on the reposibility of paying for good care..while dogs are not human, (despite what they think), they are entitled to good care... very little to give back, for what they give to us.
Bailey is always glad to see me, happy to be in my company at all times, does not demand a thing, give me any crap at all, and is always a pleasure to be with...can't always say that about any human on the planet....
worth every penny...and yes a grand a year, on just "maintenence" is about right... have spent twice that on surgery...
do remember one family dog, when I was a real young kid, going for a "walk" with Dad in the woods.. Dad had the .22... and we did not see the dog again... I gotta tell you.. that has never left my mind....
his generation would most likely think much different than I do...
