Vaiva, apart from telling you your profile picture is the best I have ever seen (beautiful dog and even more owner!), your story is touching and ever so true.
I have been in serious economical problems here in Prague since I arrived 4 months ago and found a job only last month.
And, just like you, I have priorities.
There was a moment i had the last 100 euros waiting for something to happen....I didn't think a minute and I spent them ALL on dog/cat food, so at least they will not starve!
The next day, i got the money from a Studfee from Echo.
It's wolf Karma!

Tried to contact wolfin. Got positive answer and the price... Much too big for two students... I will not tell all the story, but wolfin then gave me a chance to have Brukne ("I want you to have her" ) and little by little I paid the price of my dog.
There were times where we had like 2 euros for two people for a week (for food). But the dog was always FIRST. She was always well fed, always had good vets, always most loved.
Now I am not having the best financial situation ever but still my dog comes first than a vaccation/cosmetics/new shoes/evening out. And I will always think that a person who can not just pay 1000 or smth euros for a dog at once still can be a very good owner.
