Thanks for all the information, I think I am definitely going to look for a low-cost vaccination clinic. I think I've seen one advertised before. Thanks again!

You may check with your local animal control, humane shelters or pet food stores. Often times there are lost cost vaccinations available. If you do this make sure you keep copies of the paperwork as any vet will require that if you need to board y...

I know at the Arizona Humane Society here, they charge $18 for all the vaccines, about $30 dollars for the heartworm test. The office visits are $20 dollars however, on vaccine clinic days they waive the fee. This is probably where I will go when ...

Boo Buchheit replied to Caitlin's discussion 'Vaccine Costs'

My vet charges $25 for puppy shot/well puppy check up. This includes the shot (distemper/parvo) worming, nail trim and regular exam. I am not sure what they charge for follow up boosters. Leo's neuter included microchip, rabies shot, nail trim, an...

Brian Ambrosius replied to Caitlin's discussion 'Vaccine Costs'

I recently had the same thing with Brian about a month ago. I live near Boston, and we spent around the same prices. Office Visit/Exam: $56 Distemper: $22 Heartworm/Lyme/Ehrlichia Test: $44 Plus a 12-mo supply of Heartgard at $60 brought me out ...

Call around. You would be amazed at how different the prices are between vets. Also, check with your local Humane Society for suggestions. They will usually know where you can get good low cost vet care if they don't do it. That is what my daughte...

Jeff, Karen, Violet and Magnus replied to Caitlin's discussion 'Vaccine Costs'

That does seem high - we paid about $155 for both Violet and Magnus last month. We are in Florida so maybe it varies by state. I've heard that some areas do have program helping with vaccine costs - msnbc ran a story about that a couple of weeks a...

Jennifer replied to Caitlin's discussion 'Vaccine Costs'

I second this idea! I know our local Petco does low-cost vaccinations at least once or twice a month. It can get a bit hectic at times but is worth checking out!

Profile Information

Hometown:: Brunswick, ME

About Me:: I've lived in Maine for 10 years, and I grew up in Southern California. When I was a kid I always had a dog, but as an adult the timing hasn't been right until now. We've finally bought a house with a few wooded acres, very secluded and private. I love it!

We share our house with 3 cats and 2 guinea pigs. Our cats are a bit older and have never had a dog around, so it might be a challenge at first to bring the puppy into the household. But I know we can work through any problems. I'll probably look to this site for a lot of advice!

I've loved corgis ever since my mom had one when I was in high school. Kaydee was the best dog! We've had many dogs before and they were all special, but I don't think another had quite the impact that Kaydee did, especially on my mom.

I think this site is fantastic, it's very informative and everyone seems very friendly and helpful!

About My Corgi(s):: Penny was born on March 18, 2008. She is such a good dog, super smart! She has really mellowed out in the last few months and is doing a lot less puppy-biting. We really enjoy going to Coastal Corgi meetups in New Hampshire.

Corgi Toes

I just wanted to put this picture in a blog because I think it is so cute. I've seen plenty of corgis stick their legs out behind, but never so that the toes are touching!

Puppy Romper Room

I have discovered that a local pet store in Portland (Planet Dog) does something called Puppy Romper Room for an hour a day on Saturday and Sunday. This is really great because I was kind of at a loss for ideas on how to socialize Penny. I don't know anyone in the area with dogs, and whenever we've gone to the park and tried to meet dogs there, Penny is very shy. Well, honestly, almost terrified. I'm pretty sure this must be because of the incident with Comet (my out-of-state friends Golden/Yell… Continue

Camping Trip

Actually this blog will probably be about more than just camping, since I haven't written in awhile. So if it's lengthy, I apologize!

Penny is doing great! Her ears are up, they've been up for about a week or two now.

Of my 3 cats, the one that she has the biggest, on-going conflict with is Guy. I think maybe Guy is just a big bully, and when I say big, I mean that literally since he is 20 lbs. And he's not fat, well not too fat, he could probably stand to lose a couple of pounds, but mostly h… Continue

My slippers!

It was unusually cold this morning :( so when I woke up I put on my warmer "winter" slippers, which I haven't worn for a couple of months, since before we got Penny. She is obsessed with them! They have a lambswool cuff on them and that's the part she loves, but I almost crushed her several times because she was attached to my feet. She wasn't actually biting my feet, just the cuff, but I think I am going to have to make the slippers go away because she no longer bites anyone's feet and I don't… Continue

Penny (aka Princess PP)

Just so you know, Princess PP stands for Princess Psycho Penny :) I told someone at work that we've been calling her that and they assumed it was because she's peeing all over the place. She actually has been doing really well with not peeing in the house, but I was on vacation & home with her all last week, so I was able to take her out frequently. The real test will be today, now that I am back at work. I anticipate a big mess in the laundryroom when my daughter comes home this afternoon.… Continue

I hope you can make it to the Meetup in Kingston. It actually not that much further than Hampton for you.

Continue down 95 to the Hampton Tolls then on to NH 101 - all highway. The Meetup location is about 10 Minutes off of 101.

They went up, then crashed back down for a few days, then went up permanently a few days later. I know they weren't up when he was 12 weeks.
