One of my favorite topics seems to be the cost of owning a pet…especially after I figured out that I’d spent over $48,000 on the German shepherd and the greyhound! That notwithstanding, what did I do shortly after the shepherd’s demise? Oh yes. [...] [...] I don’t know that I could say which were my favorite posts.
