i spent that much cuz i couldn't find a dog anywhere that fit my needs/wants except at the pet store where they're all registered, which of course upped the price greatly....

dellusion we're certainly not so broke we can't afford to raise him... i haven't put us in any jeapordy.... and if any dog was to eat us outta home it certainly won't be him.. he's only a chiuahuah.... his food expenses are going to be about as cheap as any breed of dog out there...

btw i have no problem adopting dogs from the pound, my last dog that i loved more than anything came from there.... he was a chow/doberman mix... but i wanted a puppy, and i HAD to get something really small... we don't have a fenced yard so it had to live in the house, mostly my room... my options were tight...
