If you're among the many, many Americans who've brought a puppy home during the pandemic, that stimulus check could be hugely beneficial.

. But since the goal of the stimulus package is to stimulate the economy through spending, I've decided that would be a somewhat selfish choice for my situation.

When the COVID-19 crisis started to unfold, I was not entirely sure how things would play out. In fact, I still have no idea when things will return to normal. But, for now, our new normal is spending more time at home — a lot more time. The problem of who would stay home to potty train the puppy was no longer an issue. So we went to our local animal shelter and brought home a lovable mixed-breed puppy. We are not the only family in America that had this idea.

First of all, the cost of bringing our new puppy home was just over $400. We had to pay for the adoption fee in order to take him home, as well as an apartment pet fee before he could walk through the door. After bringing him home, we had to navigate taking him to the vet in the post-coronavirus world. It involved dropping him off in a clean space for the vet to pick him up for this first check-up. The first visit to the vet led to a string of expenses that will likely stretch out for the next several months while he works up to becoming fully vaccinated and completely recovered from his rough days of puppyhood.
