I disagree that they're frivolous, my dog was a huge source of happiness and joy while he was alive, and Daddy brought his dog to the relationship when we inherited her from his mother because she was put into a nursing home after falling and laying on the floor for 3 days before she could get help.
yeah they can keep you out of certain living places, we experienced that when Daddy and I first started looking for apartments before we decided to live with my parents and help support this place and not get our own.
They may cost you a bit of money here and there, but if they're healthy it's not really a lot, foods only 15 dollars, and a bag lasts t hem for like a month, if you feed them right,
you got your heart worm and your flea prevention and if your dog is bigger or fat, and you got a few vet visits once a year sure that adds up, but baring no big expensive emergencies, they're not that costly in my eyes.
We live on a half acer out in rual kind of country, she's not in a garage only, or alone in the garage we live in here too.
That may be your friends objections, because she goes in the house and she goes in the yard, half the time she's in the yard sleeping, or chasing the dog next door back and forth along the fence. She's extremely well cared for, overly cared for in fact sometimes lol. I tend to spoil and fuss over my dogs, and provide them a lot of over care in the past.
She'll never go hungry in this family lol. In fact and I know it's bad, but her mom over fed her a whole lot, My future mom in law is a very tiny woman, she eats one sandwhich and a drink and she's full, so most pre packaged foods were to much food for her, and since she lived alone she cooked a lot of tv dinners, and shared them with her dog, and she could not get down the stairs to take Ginger for a walk, so Ginger got very fat on the hog at her moms. She weighed 55 pounds when she got here, and due to Ginger smoozing the neighbor and her girls for dog cookies, and over abundance of food to find, she's 65 pounds now. All though I have begun rationing her food and walking her.
Termy one day I made a little gravey out of hamburger grease and good god it was gross, it was so salty, from the grease being salty.

A dog is a frivolous expense. That doesn't mean anything, because when they are put out or their utilies get shut off, I am not there.
The idea here was to find something to do with this crap. What everybody said is right, you cna't even use it for gravy, at least not alot. What do you do ?
You can hijack if you want, but let me say this. What I make approaches thirty buck an hour, and I do not keep animals. They belong outside. They fend for themselves but you can feed them once in a while. We have Whitekitty, AKA Rentakitty. We don't feed him all the time, and he is gone when we go to bed. I have no tolerance for this.
I will deem myself financially able to keep a pet when and if I can have a good sized piece of land, where whatever it is can run and play, and learn. As such it is frivolous, but some people seem to need that. I don't attack that because it is like hitting below the belt.
To set the record straight though, I would not have an animal in a garage. I have told friends this and almost alienated them. And everything turned out as I expected, dude can't find a place to live because he has a dog. He can't live here with the dog. He is now just about homeless. So close he can smell it. But I am not involved.
That's the way, uh huh uh huh, I like it.
Now I keep humans, like Kresgies or Woolworth's, they look just like humans but at work to destroy. Innocent Mothers hiding in their basements, using pots and pans as their shields and their helmets. Dad gets his allowance from his sonny the dealer, who is pubic to the world but involved in high finance. Rats in battalions are ruling the street scene ........... Aice Cooper, Billion Dollar Babies.
I'll stop now.
I have only drank about a twlevepack all week, I haven't burned one since Tuesday. This is Citibank week, the payment is very high. I can't afford anything. Do I let my animals go hungry ? Nope, I got a better idea, don't get them in the first place.
