We love a good tax loophole — but trying to write off your golden retriever as a “security system”? That’s barking up the wrong IRS tree. 🐾💸
Here’s the scoop:
- 🛑 No, your dog isn’t a deductible expense — even if he barks at strangers and sleeps by the door.
- 🐕🦺 Guard dogs for business use (think junkyard Rottweilers) can be partially deductible — but your couch-loving labradoodle? Not so much.
- 🧾 Trying to claim your pup could trigger an audit faster than you can say “who’s a good boy?”
💡 Real tip:
If you want to protect your home and your wallet, invest in a legit security system — and keep your furry friend off your Schedule C.
