Im getting a new dog and have some questions.
 

Hey well on wednesday i will be introdicing a new member to my family, a puppy sheltie, I was wondering if any one had an old plastic kenell they would like to get rid of, for a medium dog, Or any other dog items?
Thanks, Sean.

I changed the post title, better to recyle then waste a thread

wal-mart seems to be the cheapest place for new ones, if you cant find anything used.

I was going to say, I think we spent a whopping 28$ for the plastic kennel for cody (he's in the sheltie size range). At wallyworld of course.

With the way Parvo and other diseases hang around - not sure I'd want a used kennel...

Yeah we were thinking the same thing so we decided to buy a new one. It was 40 at zellers, which is cheaper then ive found anywhere else. Thanks guys.


And a quesion, does anyone know how much vaccinations cost?

yearly vacinations are usally about a 100 bucks a dog including a checkup.

What about the initial vaccinations for puppies. I think there are three that you need to get.

Check at the local SPCA. They're usually the cheapest place around, if I remember correctly from my petshop days.

In alberta the ASPCA will only give discounted Vet services with animals that are being adopted from their shelter.

if your worried about vaccination prices you are going to be in for some shocks at the cost of owning a dog. last year one of my greyhounds dislocated her toe, by the time it was all over it cost me almost a 1000 bucks and her a toe. all i can say is i wish i had gotten all the dogs insurance when they were pups.

Our dog went to the Vet Saturday for shots a check up, they say she needed a teeth cleaning and the estimate was between $785-$950 depends how much time they spend. My wife is Dental Hygenist (no she can't do the dogs teeth :cry: ) she said a human worst case senario would be about $250-$300 :evil:
What we won't do for our pets
BTW she is a yorkie terrier so not much teeth
