Freppan,

I was wondering if you also considered the expense of a driving car to get to your job on top of the expenses for caring for a new puppy. It's not just the gas and maintenance. Once you start driving at 16, you will have to pay car insurance; whether you have your own car or not; have you looked into that? or is your mom planning on paying that for you. You can figure approx. $700-$1000 for insurance per year for a teen driver, and that is usually with good grade discounts; meaning at least a "B" GPA
