    Every one acts like every purebreed is a medical oddity when really it’s just an increased likelihood of defects for certain breeds. I can tell you right now any animal can hurt your pocket the second they decide your gold plated anal beads look like a tasty treat.

        That seems sort of cruel when some people can’t afford health insurance for their people.

            People dont have $50 a month. What ever what ever, no one should have a pet unless they can afford it and all the animals that can’t find homes should be put down.

              You can get it as cheaply as $17 a month. And the person I was replying to said your pet would “hurt your pocket” when they eat something they’re not supposed to, implying that they would be paying for the expensive surgery. Most veterinary surgeries are $2K-$5k. Mid range health insurance is $50 per month or $600 per year, saving $1400- $4400 for a person who would be paying out of pocket otherwise.
