Well keeping any pet is a big commitment, other than time will be the cost of upkeeping it especially dogs. Toy Predigree Dog will require more care & attention. Startup cost will be high, as they require many stuffs other than food, maintenance wise will require vaccinations, grooming, vitamins etc. Maintenance at least $100- $200 per month in normal circumstances.
Adoption usually its not free also even from SPCA, you need to pay a certain sum of money be it more or less. If you were to buy from a Pet Shop, you need at less $1000 or more dependng on what breed of dog you looking at together with bare minimum stuffs you need to purchase, plus you need to have 3 vaccinations done 1st, usually only 1 vaccination is done by the Retailer, then 1 vaccination yearly.
Some breed can be quite expensive, like a good Predigree Chow Chow can cost around $19,000 for a puppy. Imperial Shih Tzu will go about at least $1000 & above. Pomeranian probaby $800. Local puppy also at least $600 after adding cost of vaccinations almost around the same morever local puppy depending on the intergrity of seller, sometimes its not pure bloodline Predigree, you would'nt know untill some time when the puppy grow up.
Unless you are financially capable if not i would advise you to reconsider. Its sad to see abandon pets, SPCA do not always keep them for adoption subjected case to case of their condition, Huge number of them are put to sleep every year. Its really sad case sometimes. They too deserve a chance to live.
Blessed Be,

You have to go SPCA see.. Or some pet clinics, But most of the time the clinics ones are those that are dying.. But IF YOU TRULY WANT A PET, I CAN ASK MY FRIEND WHO IS A VET THERE

I have done all the considerations and thinking before I decide to have a pet pup or dog. I understand that I'll be havin a new family member into our household. If I were to desert my pup, I wldn't own it in the first place. Thank you for your advice. =) -

So what if you got it for free? At times when thing is free, it lost its meaning because one may never cherish it. Grooming is essential at least once a month & Vitamins i use Vital Energy cost $56 will last 2 months. Food & Snacks i use Eukanuba only. I will spend at least $100 a month on my pet, at times more depending on my mood. Well its really up to individual as long as you are happy with it. Different people have different needs. I am only quoting a rough cost for example, end of the day its up to you what you want. You may like laksa, i may prefer pasta so whats there to bother. Amusing aren't you? SPCA Miss Deirdre Moss, the last time i saw her was in the early 90s when i participated in some of their events. Well did'nt know Vet got provide such services, i seriously doubt their professionalism now. Hmmm now i have to trace my thoughts, does it mean if my friend is a lawyer i get free legal service? I seriously doubt so, if there is such free service do let me know, i am sure Legal Aid also charge a monetary sum. I wonder if Charity Organisation operate for free? From what i know, they aren't, part of your donation go in their paycheck & upkeep. This is the Real World you know, its harsh but life goes on... whether you like it or not. So stay cheery...stay happy...send my regards to your pet...

Welcome, well that is the right mindset. As long you are financially able & your family are agreeable, i don't see why not. Its fun to have pet, i love animals. Been keeping pets almost all my life other than dogs. I bought my 1st puppy when i am 7. Subsequently i kept other pets too from normal ones to rather exotic ones. Buy or get a young puppy will be better than adopting an adult dog as its hard to train them as their character has already settle down. I wish you good luck.

Don't buy, go SPCA & adopt.
Do a good deed or else they put them to sleep.
Recently told my hubby's fren to go SPCA cos he wanted to buy a replacement for his lost dog.
Luckily he took my advice cos he found his lost dog there. He only need to pay $100+, cheaper than buying. -
How I wish I can adopt a dog. My mum won't allow - Who to clean up the mess! she will shout at me.
Hopefully, when I get my own home. -
saw this too late...have a fren's JRT for free but offer no more....hope u can find ur dog soon.
btw, what breed are u looking for? -
Yes, you can certainly try Action for Singapore Dogs. Website has been given earlier. There's a network of fosterers and who knows, you may be able to find one you are looking for.
I don't see the sense in buying purebreds from pet shops and pet farms when there are so many abandon dogs around. Someone is going to tell me that purebreds are more loving towards their owners??? That's BS!!!!! Are mongrels any less than purebreds?
We all know that SPCA and AVA put down dogs because there are simply not enough space for them all. Give an abandon dog another chance. -
