Because of the dogs thousands of years of domestication and breeding for positive traits it is easier to find a good dog than a good wife. If you have a good wife bring her along slowly and gently to the place she needs to be. (Don't tell my wife I said that) ::)  :)

We've been married for 52 years and we dated for 5 years before that. She's coming along really well.  We have our 10th & 11th dogs right now. Only on the 3rd cat. ;D

Holy moly, those Vet bills are big nowadays🤯 I think i'm done after this mornings trip, hopefully till next year! Started with long overdo vaccines, ear infection, urinairy infection, more boosters, more wormer. Now tick free, he had a bunch😖 Only managed to get 3 more pounds on him this past 2 weeks but gaining. 
   Getting to know and understand him better (& him me😁) Working on basic command words,  (apperantly previous owners had different commands🙄) and manors first.  He totally trusts me now and seems eager to please once the language barrier is broke.
  He likes the after lunch nap, I may need a wider couch😁 He spends a lot of sleep time on his back now.

Last time I took Max. He had to get a mass on his neck removed but before the surgery,  the doctor wanted an EKG cause he had a miss in his heartbeat.  Anestitioligyst said it was only once in awhile.  $800 bill that day.  He even has insurance.
His comprehensive yearly appointment was a few days ago.  Didnt go,  still trying to recover from his last stint.
I quit taking him to the other petsmart cause Dr Doom was costing me alot.
I have PTSD.

We are in Texas for a family reunion. Had a hard time finding a house setter so we had to board the dogs. Their hotel rooms are almost as expensive as ours. I've got to get a new plan.  ;D

The cost of keeping a dog/pet are crazy! Growing up, you could go to our local SPCA and walk out with a dog for $10.00, no questions. Now they put you through a wringer and it costs a couple hundred. Then the vet bills. When I was a kid they got one or two shots a year $5.00 bucks each. Now there's six different shots and heartworm pills and blah, blah, blah. And the vets try to guilt you into extra stuff..........maybe I should have posted this in the "rant" section
Tighten it up til it strips, then back it off a quarter turn

Good lookin' pup!
Spending time with my grandkids gets in the way of finishing my car but I don't regret it!

Our dogs had to get special shots so they could be in the" Bordello". You'd think females would be free!  :o  ;D

^^^^^^^lol, 😁

I remember a friend said they had to get extra vax for boarding their dog. Kennel cough/ doggy flu and something else. 🥴 Guess it keeps all the doggo's safe from a bad one.

Chopper, on spot.  Like a new car salesman, upgrade to extended warranty, under coat, paint sealant, pin stripes, life ins, disability and payment protection, etc😡  They tried real hard yesterday to guilt me into Heart gaurd, which of course he would have to be tested first ($36) 🤯   He's an inside dog now....i'll pass.

Rattiac, i hope Max is doing good. All that blood work and testing prior to any surgery is spendy. My first Golden cost me a small fortune in just 3.5 weeks on bone cancer. All to pay more to put him down🥴

He's doing good.  Has a hard time going down the stairs.  I think ill make a carpeted ramp on one side of the stairs to help him out. 
Sometimes I wish I could get on his health plan.
Once a year,  they knock ya out,  do all the medical,  clean yur teeth,  prescribe meds and off ya go. 😜
Pic of him asking for belly rubs.
Rowdy looks like he's pretty comfortable in his new surroundings.
