Have you ever seen the ad in magazines that has a cute little puppy on it & the heading says "He doesn't know that you can't afford medicine" or something like that? It breaks my heart everytime I see it. I know that I can't afford to shell out a ton of money on a pet-even just for shots. I'd love to have one but will have to have a little more stability (physically & financially) before I can do so.
