“Told My Wife I Didn’t Want Another Dog, I Was Wrong”: 50 Of The Purest Dog Photos (New Pics)

It’s important that your lifestyle suits having a dog too. If you work in an office for 40 hours a week, and you’ll have to leave your pet at home alone, you might want to consider a cat instead. Dogs need to be let outside every few hours to do their business, and they can become extremely lonely if they don’t get enough human interaction. Plus, they need plenty of exercise. So it’s just cruel to adopt a dog then force them to sit at home alone for many hours each day. 

Another important factor to consider before bringing a dog home is how much it will cost. Yes, you will absolutely love your animal. But if you can’t afford food, toys and trips to the vet, you might want to hold off. Rover reports that the upfront costs of adopting a furry friend range between $1,150 and $4,420. And each year, owners should expect to spend between $1,390 and $5,295 on their beloved pet.
