Hello! I realise this is very much a "how long is a piece of string" question, but myself and my partner are trying to gauge how much we need to have aside in terms of monthly/yearly costs for a dog. I was wondering if anyone felt comfortable stating their outgoing on their dog, and maybe detailing other things we, as first-time dog owners, might have overlooked. I know costs are rising so much at the moment, and things such as insurance rises every year anyways, but... I guess I'm just wondering if it's even possible to budget for! We realise in general larger breeds will be larger cost, though variable factors such as illness/medication/special food etc. etc. complicate matters....
I might be asking too much here, but thank you in advance for any responses or wisdom! I'm crossing fingers that it's something we can manage, I've wanted a dog since I was about 9 (And I'm nearly 39 now!)
