Totally agree. I know several people who have dogs that recently needed surgery and their out of pocket expenses were over 5K.

I was 16 so the doctor was convinced it was Mono. The symptoms were incredibly similar...super achy, slept no less than 18 hours a day, very weak. Just saps all the life out of you.
Took me lobbying for 2 appointments for them to test for lyme because I was working grounds at a golf course at the time. Yep, I was right. Eventually got on antibiotics and couldn't go outside the rest of the summer but other than that I haven't had long term effects which I'm grateful for.

I'd say this depends on breed and the dog's attitude

As OP said, It’s easier for a dog to wriggle out of and compels the dog to pull when walking. Something like a martingale collar is generally recommended, which tightens as the dog pulls (but only to a certain degree so it doesn’t injure them) and can’t just be backed out of like a harness can.

This.. the first few months should be devoted to properly managing and training your dog...
My cousin adopted one, he wasn't available to devote time ... Dog adopted many uncle. This happens a lot!

Invest in a FI collar, costs $100/yr. It’s a GPS tracking collar, our rescue was a flight risk and pulled a Houdini and escaped our fenced in back yard a couple times. Found in in line 10 minutes

Reply to Possible to get MSRP EV in this state? by lrwxrwxrwx
You don’t want a Tesla. Their build quality is garbage, late 2000s Chevrolets had nicer interiors, and purchasing one supports fascist Elon Musk’s pro-Russia and Pro-Trump stances
Try Pine Belt or Lester Glenn for a Bolt. Also look to Cape May and Atlantic County dealerships. EV adoption is not as high there.
There also might be a Bolt specific forum with prices paid where you can find an NJ dealer.

Get pet insurance. Get a good harness. Costco pet food and treat prices (especially Greenies) are really amazing. Get some puzzle toys to avoid boredom. Find a nice dog park to socialize the pupper. Have fun!

Reminds me of something you would see in Pawnee town hall.

If you’re getting a strong, aggressive breed, do your research on the dogs background, especially if you have kids. Dogs like pitbulls are better get to get as puppy’s so you can train them better.

I’ve never heard someone say don’t get a harness. Why you say that?

They did have airplanes in 1936, that would be a good guess

Reply to Irvington NJ by MurrDOC_
If you like living in the real life set of “The Wire”, love high taxes paired with abysmal school system, understaffed police department and corruption galore… Irvington is the place for you.

I second this, specifically the $100/month aside just in case. My pup’s health insurance was so limited in coverage, they raised the rates as they classified her as a “senior” at 6 years old🙄 it just wasn’t worth it. I’d rather have the monthly 100$ in my possession and ready to go, god forbid!

In Ringwood they're filming for a movie called "Y2K" in a few days, allegedly with Jenna Ortega. Really cool that they're doing that in my town, but of course it's because our shopping center looks like it rotted at the turn of the millennium

The whole thing was creepy abandoned but something about the shoe room really got me. I think maybe because it has a holocaust vibe, nahmean?
