CH Ministries.org slash budget. Oh, yes. I was just calling to inquire. I've been, you know,

recently addicted to listen to the show. And so I'm wanting to pay down debt and get into a position to invest more.

So I had a question in regards to if I should possibly rehome my dogs, even though I don't want to, to get out of dog boarding fees when I'm traveling for work.

Oh, no. Okay. How often? Most people listening

like their dogs more than any people in their life. Sear, how often are you traveling?

I'm sorry? How often are you traveling? So with my new job, I travel a little less than I did before. Um, so probably it just goes with the storms, um, potentially like five to six months out of the year. And I'm usually gone from like 10 to 14 days at a time. Okay. And what's the, what's the boarding situation? Are you going to like an actual boarder?

Do you have someone come and pet sit?

So I have a sitter now that's pretty consistent.

And look at my bank did at like an overview of all my spending.

And for my dogs, I spent about $10,000 last year.

Oh, wow.

Yeah, if you're gone half the year, I mean...

How long have you had a dog?

Or maybe talk to my sitter to try to see we can negotiate something.

That's what I was wondering, or is there so...

I just wonder if there's other options.

I always hate just like a, this is my only option.

I would say get rid of the dog.

Oh my.

I know, I know half America just hung up on, like, they just are going to send mean cards

and letters to James about me.
