July 2013 Expenses

It is month three of tracking the canine-related expenses for us.

July 2013 Expenses

Food-$179.45
Health-$251.50
Treats-$24.99
Misc-$66.00
Grooming-$17.49

Total-$539.43

I am getting into the habit of saying this every month, but it really is not normally this much.  Maybe it is...?

For health, Faolan had his wellness visit, two urinalyses, 10 days of antibiotics, and I purchased two doses of Trifexis for him at the vet.  $8.00 of the health total was Bruce's Rx, amitriptyline. 

Treats was the Spoiled Rotten Box.  Les accidentally paid through August for the BarkBox. : )

Grooming was a nail trim for Neeko, and a new slicker brush to be used on all three pups.

Misc was the Bully Horns, a bottle of Nature's Miracle, and a smallish bottle of Grizzly Wild Pollock Oil.

I really, really, REALLY hope next month is better.

But they are so worth it.

  1. Hmmm it does seem like a lot but they are big dogs... I could easily spend that much on my 2 kids in a month. The health expenses for what you described seems about average to me too. I've worked at both a really cheap vet clinic and a really expensive one. In fact, I think that $250 for that sounds like a pretty good deal.

  2. Tell me about it! But that's not TOO bad for big dogs. I spent $200 something on Nola in July, when it's usually under $50.

  4. Wow, that's a high expense! They are totally worth it, though. I would say that I average about $75/month for Beamer, which isn't too bad.
