Do you have a limit as to what you can spend on a puppy? I can peruse the ads here in Spokane and check SCRAPS. I think it is around $75.00 to get a puppy here. This includes the license, shots and a certificate to get the animal spayed or neutered.
With all the people on this site, we can find a way to get one to you!
Something else you should look into CL - Many of the shelters have senior discounts. Years ago when my grandmother wasn't able to find a reason to get out of bed, I found a long haired dachshund for her at the shelter and put a deposit on it until I could get her there the next day to surprise her. Because she was a senior, it ended up costing her less than $25 to adopt the dog instead of the regular $200-$350 it normally cost. That was some years ago, but I'm pretty certain senior discounts still apply. This was at the Pierce County shelter where I still volunteer.
Oh another good idea I will tell DH when I talk to him again. FiL said get rid of all his chickens, most I know he hatched from other chickens he had, so are at best production red frankinchickens.
he says they are RIR, I just said OK and walked away, no way are those RIR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Frankenchickens at best!
None theless, they are all within 2 years old (I think) and all good layers.
On the downside, they have been neglected and I bet wormy & mitey.
Poor things, DH said he collected over 50 eggs....very rotten from sitting so long.
Happy to say their is a BYCer in NorCal who is going to go get them.
They will have a healthier more attentive owner now.
