It must get expensive with vet visits, heartguard, etc. I already wish I didn't have my heartguard bill, for three medium sized dogs.
We have 17 dogs because mom has a habit of picking up strays. The vet bills are very expensive but fortunately we have a vet that lets us make payments. About them being outside-well, they like it there. They would rather be outside more than anywhere else. Tiny, Nitis, and Lacy stay inside. Whino, Daphney and Uno are the only outside dogs that like to come in so they come in regularly. So not ALL of them are outside. Sprinkles comes in at night because she is older (almost 9) and gets cold easily but she really hates it.
