If you have a dog, or dogs, that you acquired from a reputable breeder or ... anywhere else--Just wanna see how much did you spent for your dog. Gonna buy a Doberman and a Great Dane, my favorite breeds, and both are at least 1000-3000 â¬... money which I do not have.


Answer
The purchase price is only the beginning. I hope you are looking a breeders that are member of breed clubs like Great Dane Club of America and health test their dogs. Even health testing doesn't guarantee against other health problems that pop up. Bloat is very common. It's over 2000 for surgery.

Dane pups do not need 4 series of puppy vaccinations. Way to many for their system. Over vaccination can cause some serious health problems. Please do some research.

This is probably more info then you wanted. :)

The Estimated Cost Of Adopting A Great Dane
by Renee Broden

Here is a cost sheet that I made up for puppy buyers and rescue adopters.

Of course you can improvise on some things and not spend as much on certain items, but it gives you a good idea. Remember everything is at a much larger scale then a small dog. Some items can be purchased at garage & yard sales.

Some things listed may be more or less in certain areas. I wrote this a few years ago, so I'm sure some things are more expensive today.

Of course people are not going to run out and buy everything on the list. It just gives you an idea of how much things add up for owning a big dog. Please do your homework.

what size crate for golden retriever?




j.w.


I'm about to buy a soft crate for my dogs agility classes. I was wondering what size is good. She isn't a huge golden, she weighs about 60 lbs. There are 2 sizes:
36 inches L x 24 inches W x 27 inches H
42 inches L x 28 inches W x 31 inches H
I will be moving this around a lot so I would go for the smaller one but I want her to be comfy. Thanks!
