The nation’s most expensive dog breeds have been revealed but where does your pooch come?

As a country, we can’t get enough of our pets and would do just about anything for them – no matter what size or shape they come in.

But between vet costs, food, insurance and general upkeep, our favourite furry friends can cost an absolute fortune.

In fact, according to the marketing service Savoo’s research, your waggy-tailed pal could cost you as much as £25,000 over their lifetime.

Ed Fleming, Managing Director at Savoo, comments: “Overall, owning a pet can be very expensive, therefore it’s imperative that we keep in mind all potential costs before owning one of our own.”

Mr Fleming continued: “Savoo has plenty of voucher options available to help cut the costs of keeping a pet, including deals on pet food, supplies and even pet insurance to help animal lovers look after their beloved pets in the best way possible, without breaking the bank.”
