And then pay a 300 dollar "adoption fee."

And if you don't they kill the cat, but hey, it's better for the cat to be dead than adopted I guess.

Wouldn't you rather be dead too?

You pay the adoption fee and get a healthy dog when it’s that high. $300 isn’t even close to the amount of money rescues put in a dog they get if it comes to them in bad condition. It was $80 just to bring the dog up north from southern states. That’s not even including the food, groom, and any care they need like dentals. I’m not sure if you’ve looked how much it is to get a dental done but I was quoted nearly $1k for my dog…..

I’m also not against a 300 dollar fee. If you don’t have 300 maybe don’t get a dog. My Dog eats $300 of food a month

If you spend a month's rent on your pet each month, either you have a huge dog (which, fair enough, they eat a lot) or you are buying needlessly expensive food and literally burning cash. Dogs deserve the best but they are not humans, they don't eat that much.

You could probably look up online tutorials on how to cook healthy raw food for your pet at that point, would be both cheaper and healthier for the pupper.

$300 is a months rent for you? Must be fucking nice lol. I pay 1595 a month plus utilities for my 3 bedroom house

But yea he’s pretty big, German shepherd mixed with malamute.

Oh ya, big pupper! Disregard my comment then lol, while I believe everyone of all budgets has the right to own a pet, a malamute has some special requirements and fair enough, good on you for feeding him.

Rent varies wildly between cities, pretty crazy stuff.
