I am often asked by prospective pet owners what it costs to own a dog. Most pet owners calculate the price of the food and add it to the cost of the dog and figure that they can afford it regardless of their budget. The reality is that very few people have any idea how much owning a dog really costs and grossly underestimate it.
Why does it matter what it costs to own a dog? After all, we love our pets and we would not put a price on their health and happiness. The hard facts are that the cost of owning a dog is an extremely important consideration for a number of often overlooked reasons. The first concerns the purchase price of the dog. Many people balk at paying $500 to $1000 for a dog. They rationalize that they simply can not afford it and settle for a poorly bred $150 puppy instead. What a huge mistake. The cost of a guaranteed healthy, well-bred $1000 puppy is a fraction of what it will cost to own that dog for 12 years. A poorly bred dog with bad hips, allergies, and a not so bright disposition will end up costing you thousands more in medical bills not to mention hours of frustration and disappointment. At the same time, if you are not going to pay for a high quality purebred, then do the animal kingdom a favor and go to the shelter and get a mixed breed puppy that will be healthier and smarter than a poorly bred ‘purebred.’
The second reason that the cost of owning a dog is important is that it is a big investment. This dog is going to cost you a lot of money, not to mention a tremendous amount of time. If you are not fully prepared to pay for a dog’s needs and willing to spend a significant portion of your free time with the animal, then by all means do not get a dog. There are thousands of dogs put to sleep every year because the owners no longer want them or can not afford them. On top of this, there are hundreds of thousands of dogs that live miserable lives devoid of exercise, interaction, socialization, and basic housing needs because people do not realize the time, commitment, or expense involved in owning and properly caring for a dog.
The third important reason to understand what owning a dog costs is that when you realize what owning a dog costs, you will take the ownership and your responsibility much more seriously. We would not dream in investing $10,000 on a car that we know nothing about, had no warranty, we had not driven, and was completely unsuitable for our use. Yet people do this more everyday and they get a puppy without researching its breed characteristics, medical history, and parental history. And worse yet are the people that get a dog on a whim or for a child without any concept of the dog’s needs and requirements, let alone the financial costs that are going to be incurred

Go to the shelter – you’ll get a healthier dog than you’d find from any BYB you’d end up getting in touch with.

Well, a Rottweiler costing $500 or less, means you will be purchasing a very poorly bred, quite possibly unhealthy pup. My suggestion, find a Rottweiler rescue near or around you and consider adopting something they have.
A poorly bred Rottweiler could have a major heart problem, and drop dead at a very young age. Or, hip problems, eye problems, teeth problems. You need to be very careful where you get a Rottweiler puppy, and one at the price you are wanting to pay, will have one if not all of the above health issues prevalent to the breed.
Find a rescue. They will vet the dogs first, so you will know what you are getting. They also temperament test all their dogs before they home them. You will have to pay an adoption fee to cover the cost of feeding, boarding, and health care for that particular dog, but you will be saving a dog, and not contributing funds to someone who should not be breeding Rottweilers to begin with. Please do not line the pockets of a back yard breeder, who helps to destroy my beloved breed, by not doing all they can do to prevent health and temperament issues in their breeding stock.
