I've heard all sorts of differing advice. Since we've had Zach I've read in numerous places that a bitch is best to go for as a first dog but we got a boy and havent had toooo many problems lol just the usual puppy/new owner stuff.

Neutering is obviously much less invasive than spaying and so costs less. Our vets charge £85 for boys £125(i think) for girls. Injections are about 25 quid each and you need two in the first few weeks. You will also need frontline which costs around £20 for 3 pipets and worming tablets which are about £30 for 8.

Good luck with your decision xx
