I don’t know what your budget is, but I think it costs about 6,000 to 7,000 yuan a year.
Medical care: If the dog is in very good health, it only needs vaccinations and deworming every year, as well as various cleaning supplies, which cost about 1,000 yuan. This is already the lowest medical expense. Some dogs are in poor health and often get sick, so the expenses will be very high. This item cannot be saved
Food: I buy dog food for about 2,500 yuan every year. I always buy foreign brands, but mid-range products produced in China, which are not expensive. The expense is so low because he only eats dog food once a day, and there is no time to make fresh food for him in the morning, so only 5-6 kilograms a month is enough. Dinner is freshly made for him, and it is difficult to calculate how much this costs. Let’s calculate it based on eating two meals of dog food a day, which costs 5,000 yuan a year, and this does not include snacks and extra meals. Moreover, Samoyeds eat more. I eat like a Border Collie.

Bathing and grooming: You can save money and bathe yourself. It costs 100 yuan to wash it outside once, and I bought a pet hair dryer for 300 yuan, and it has already paid for itself.
Toys: You can save money, with a minimum expenditure of 0 yuan. Some dogs don’t play with toys at all… If you like to play, you can make your own toys. My baby’s favorite toy used to be a tin box of mooncakes. He had fun playing with it all day at home. Finally, I couldn’t stand it anymore because it made too much noise, so I secretly threw it away… Anyway, he is happy to play with anything. However, I still spend a lot on toys. I may buy him toys worth five or six hundred yuan a year. I also think that’s a bit too much. My floor is full of his toys…
These are probably the types of expenses. So the minimum is six thousand. It looks like a lot, but it’s actually not that much. If you calculate it this way, it’s only 500 yuan per month. Just buy one or two fewer pieces of clothing, and you can have a super cute baby.
Besides, after raising a dog, I will be covered with dog hair when I go out, so why do I need beautiful clothes! I wear sneakers at home every day, ready to walk the dog at any time, why do I need so many single shoes and small high heels?! I walk the dog at home after work, and I will never go out to have fun. How much money have I saved?! I exercise in the suburbs every weekend. I used to be out of breath when climbing five floors, but now I can run up in one breath without changing my face. How much medical expenses have I saved?! So, since raising a dog, I have saved at least 20,000 to 30,000 yuan every year, right?!
So my conclusion is that raising a dog is not only free, but also saves money →_→
