I am done arguing the water as well since I know it is used on all the animals I own, as well as all the animals anyone I know or have ever talked to in this city.
Ok lets break this down. you understand there is a risk with using sand. so lets say something does happen because of your personal choice. how will you be a responsible pet owner if you cant afford one vet bill? you said so yourself that you cant afford to take your frog to a vet now because you are a college student. I just want you to think this through. wouldnt prevention be cheaper than taking a risk?
