Raising border collies requires a certain economic budget. Probably 1000- 1500 yuan. According to my own experience in raising border herders, the monthly expenses of an adult border herder are probably like this:

1. Feed cost: about 5 kg of high-quality dog food per month, calculated according to 50 yuan/kg, about 250 yuan per month. If some nutrients are added, the feed cost for one month will be around 300 yuan.

My little border shepherd needs to eat about 5 kilograms of high-quality dog food every month. According to the calculation of 50 yuan per kilogram, he needs 250 yuan dog food for one month. I will also add some extra nutrients such as vitamin calcium tablets, and budget the feed expenditure in 300 yuan in a month or so. Good dog food is really important. I will choose products with good reputation from big brands to ensure that small border herders eat healthily.

2. Daily necessities: This includes dog chains, dog bowls, combs, toys and other consumables. It costs about 50- 100 yuan per month. If you need to buy large equipment, such as kennels, dog bags, etc. You need another budget.

My daily necessities, such as dog chains, water bowls and combs, also need a certain budget every month, which is about 50- 100 yuan per month. If you want to buy a large kennel or dog bag, you need to pay extra. The upgrading of these daily necessities also needs to be considered in the dog budget. I will give priority to practical and durable brands, and will not pursue flashy ones too much.

3. Cleaning products: such as bath liquid, nursing liquid, comb brush, etc. About 30-50 yuan every month.

I also need to spend a certain budget on bath care products at home, such as shower gel, hair care gel, comb and so on. , about 30-50 yuan every month. I will buy some natural plant shower gel with better quality, and I will also take care of its hair regularly. It is very important to keep its fur clean and healthy, and I can't save money.

4. Medical expenses: Border grazing requires vaccination, physical examination and deworming. Physical examination 1-2 times a year at least, and other vaccines are also needed. The monthly budget is about 100 yuan for medical expenses.

My family's border herders have to do vaccination, physical examination, deworming and other medical treatments regularly every year, and they also need budget expenses. For example, physical examination should be at least 1-2 times a year, and other kinds of vaccines are also needed. I will set aside about 100 medical expenses every month to ensure the health of the border shepherd. You can't save money in this respect, and the health of dogs is the most important.

5. Bathing beauty: Bath 1 time per month, 50-80 yuan each time. Beauty expenses depend on needs, with an average of about 100 yuan per month.

My border collie takes a bath once a month 1 time, about 50-80 yuan each time. You also need to do manicure regularly, and the cost of bathing and beauty treatment every month is about 100 yuan. This is very important for the dog's hygiene and appearance. I will take it to the pet grooming shop regularly to make sure it looks neat.

6. Sports toys: Border grazing needs rich toys and a lot of exercise. It costs about 50 yuan to buy some frisbee, balls and other toys every month.

Border herding is a very active dog, which needs a lot of exercise and various toys to consume energy. Every month, I buy some frisbee, balls and other toys for my border shepherd, and there are many activities. This kind of toy and reward snacks also need a budget. I spend about 50 yuan a month to buy some toys suitable for border grazing. Sports and play are very important to the physical and mental health of border herders, and this piece can't save money.

7. Training cost: If you choose to send the border collie to a professional dog training class for training, you also need a budget. The average dog training class needs about 200 yuan's training fee every month. This is very beneficial to the education and socialization of dogs.

8. Other miscellaneous expenses: There are also miscellaneous expenses such as pet registration and insect repellent every month, and the budget is probably around 50 yuan.
