Roughly about RM9000 without medication expenditures which are unforseen.

Kibbles itself already cost RM4500+

Wow kibbles are only ~50%.

Mind to share what the other half is spent on? Maintenance of the shelter?

Same for heart worms. Many owners aren't aware of of these common issues and the associated costs.

I assume you spend a bomb on medication as most of what you shared seem to be rescued strays.

Yes, heart worms. To prevent it, must take Nexgard Spectra every months. No shelters are affordable to give.

Yes, I spent a lot on medication. I didn't count but I know a lot.

There was one hit by vehicle and kena spinal injury. The dog was left over on the road and no one rescued. I knew about this and rescued and sent over to KL (Animed Vet) Dr Hoo for operation. However, the dog is still unable to walk and he is currently placed in my home for the rest of his life.

Total spent for operation cost + post-operation + Physio = > RM25k.

That time I gathered donation from FB. Total donation collected just RM3k. The balance of cost, I have to bear it.

This dog is given name as Mi Mi 米米

I use Heartgard as prescribed by my vet. Have a 13 year old but can't treat as too old with weak heart.

Aww poor thing. Looks fairly young. At least now can enjoy good life under your care.
