I want a dog so bad but they are so expensive. I need a small one because I live in an apartment. Does anyone know of any breeder that is reasonable in price. Any small dog will do. Pug, Maltese.... FI said that we dont have enough money but its okay for him to go to vegas in June for a bachelor party. Not Fair!!!!

Re: I want a dog sooo bad!!!
what is your budget?
there are a lot of rescue organizations out there that have small dogs.
You can also try craigslist.
I got my dog from www.chiwantone.com she has some dogs available- she's between $800-1200 for her dogs.

Well, initially i wanted a chihuaha, but FI doesnt. so we agreed on a pug but they are really expensive. but i am open to any kind of dog thats small though.
I guess 800 is a price im willing to spend. I honestly don't think that im gonna find anything out there for cheaper than that. but thanks for your advice. I look into it.

Re: I want a dog sooo bad!!!
Just remember that you must have enough money to take care of your dog once you buy it. Medical bills are expensive!!!! Trust me, you never think your dog will eat something bad or get hurt, but unfortunately they do. Quality food is expensive.
Purebred dogs from a breeder are expensive for a reason. Real breeders take excellent care of their animals, and supply the best in medical care and food. Real breeders do not make tons of money on their puppies. Buying from a pet store/craigslist/backyard breeder is setting yourself up for potential deformities and genetic problems.
So choose responsibly....adopt a mutt from a shelter, get one from a responsible rescue group or choose a reputible breeder.

Well I was planning on getting some Pet Insurance. Hopefully that will help with some expenses.

Re: I want a dog sooo bad!!!
i know of a breeder. shes more of a backyard breeder, but shes cheap! and where i got tinkerbell from. i can give you her site, but like i said shes not the BEST breeder. you should go through a rescue organization. Not ALL dogs are that expensive. the most I paid was $650 for any of mine. You best bet is to decide on a breed first. Do some research. i reccomend a chihuahua. dont forget after you get one you have to buy food and stuff fm me if you have any ?s
