I just graduated college and I'm unemployed at the moment. I have some savings lined up and I'm making a slow living from the internet, but it works. I really wanted to get a dog ever since I was a child and I think now is the best time to do it. I think it's the best time to raise a puppy because I have a year between the workplace and college so I have a lot of time at home. But I'm worried about the future and if I can bring my dog along. Please help me get this all sorted out.
Getting a dog now: Pros and Cons:
Pros:
-I have the time
-I have some finances saved up
-My mom misses having a dog (she had one when she was a child)
Cons:
-Finances in the future
-Where will I be in the future
-Will someone be able to take care of the pup?
Help me get a clear head on this and not make a mistake. I want a companion but I don't want to have heartache in the future because I was careless in the present.

Just get close friends with dogs, way less trouble.

No. Vet bills are always huge, even for the little things, and there are a lot of things you need to do in a dog's first year of life that will cost big. Sorry anon, bad choice for you atm.

Be sure that you have the energy to walk your dog 3 times a day if you do get one.
And not that theres nothing wrong with small dogs but they tend to bark more so keep that in mind

Have a job first. I swear you can wait like 5 minutes to own a dog.
