The Lazy Dog Days of Summer
Tuesday, June 29th, 2010Post from Stephen Liggins
I have always been a lover of animals. I have two dogs who are just like a part of my family. I make sure my dogs get their yearly checkups and shots from the vet. I feel like keeping up with their yearly maintenance is saving me a lot of money it would cost me if they got really sick.
I have noticed over the past few years that the cost of their tick and flea medicine just keeps increasing. I thought I would do some research online using my direct tv internet services to see if I could save myself a little bit of money. I found the same product that my vet sells for a lot less money. At the vets office I pay $180.00 for a three month supply. If I buy the product on the wild blue internet I will only pay $30.00 for that same three month supply. I often wonder why the markup on this product is so high.
The most important thing to me is keeping them healthy and happy. By saving myself $50.00 per month I can use that money to buy them a new doggie pool for my backyard this summer. What’s that old saying, the lazy dog days of summer. I think my two dogs wrote the book on that.
