How much do you think it cost a year to raise a dog.

A general forum for the discussion of hunting with beagles, guns, clothing and other equipment and just talking dawgs! (Tall tales on hunting allowed, but remember, first liar doesn't stand a chance)

Like everything in this world there is a cost. Not much is free. How much is your cable TV? How about your cell phone? What about the bass boat and hauling it to fish every weekend?

My hounds are part of my life and have been for forty years. What's sad is when people don't realize when their hobbies become an obsession (like the addict) and place them before their families spending money on their obsessions and not taking care of their greater obligations. Moderation and living within ones means is called for in all things in life.

When God decides my time in this life is over I'll leave with just exactly as much of this world as I arrived with. Money wasn't something I came with!

Harechaser,

When you leave this earth
for a better home someday,
the only thing you'll take with you
is what you gave away.

I like that too and thanks for posting it! When you think about it the most expensive thing anyone has is their life and we are given free choice in how we invest it.

Having fun, enjoying life, hobbies will always cost money... or time...or both.
You can't take it with you.
Not having any hobbies is boring, you have nothin to look forward to.

One last though about cost, it cost the same to feed a good one as it does a bad one.
