So 240 miles for one trip and my new car gets 30 mpg (so much better than the old car). 8 gallons of gas x $4.00 a gallon (average) = $32.<br />So each lesson costs us $72.<br /><br />And we go about twice a month - $144 just for 2 lessons.<br /><br />Then there are treats, food, grooming ($56 once a month), flea meds, pet insurance ($18 a month) and TOYS! <br /><br />Tibby isn't cheap LOL!!Kiyi Kiyihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08318930293008856026noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6860110177277868021.post-68243997721875556492011-07-02T18:43:26.203-07:002011-07-02T18:43:26.203-07:00I really just prefer to not think about it, especi...I really just prefer to not think about it, especially with Luce's meds. Her heart meds are just shy of $50 for 25 days worth. She also takes twice-daily medication for urine leakage, twice-daily joint supplements, and daily fish oil. <br /><br />At least flyball is a relatively cheap sport. It only cost us $42.50 to run a whole weekend.Katiehttp://underdogged.netnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6860110177277868021.post-61747976568064563742011-07-01T19:10:22.326-07:002011-07-01T19:10:22.326-07:00Thanks for sharing more info on how you're fee...Thanks for sharing more info on how you're feeding the pups. I love how well Billy does on raw and I've been interested in the whole prey model instead of the pre-prepared that I buy from the pet store. I just have two problems - no car so getting to a store where I can pick up decent animal parts is very tricky to fit in (while Soggy Paws is right by my El stop) and where on earth to feed him! I have visions of him grabbing a big drippy meaty bone and diving past me to eat it on the bed.

Especially upcoming July because we have a 2 night/3day tournament that is about 5 hours away.<br /><br />I started when I brought Sophie home at 8ish weeks fro the shelter. She was so sick as a puppy, we were in and out of the vet constantly. I stopped adding up the numbers after her 4th round of giardia.Pattyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01229758010712631659noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6860110177277868021.post-16728428807165651612011-07-01T05:29:15.262-07:002011-07-01T05:29:15.262-07:00So great!
