At the shelter from open to close
$150 adoption fee
$155 to the US Dog Registry
More than $200 to Petsmart:
2 collars
2 leashes
2 sweaters
Booties
Bowls
Food
Treats
Toys
Shampoo- for “super sensitive skin”
just in case

Manning
Student loans
Ouch
Picking up poop with used grocery bags
before breakfast
Biking a mile back from campus between
classes for a potty break
Scrubbing drool or possibly pee from
the sheets
Going for walks instead of watching
Doctor Who
Teaching people play manners: no biting
now- uh uh uh
Putting the plushy black poodle and
loon on a high shelf
Spending the first week or two smelling
like a dog shelter
So worth it
