The maximum excess shelter deduction for units without a qualifying member is $535. Allow as the excess shelter deduction total shelter costs (housing costs and utility costs) that are greater than 50% of the SNAP Unit's adjusted net income, up to the maximum of $535. The result of adjusted net income minus the allowable excess shelter deduction is called net SNAP income.
The area the shelter is in, the size of both the shelter and the dog, the regulatory requirements that may need to be met, the number of animals being handled, etc. For example my shelter has three locations (multiple locations greatly increases overhead costs) and took in about 2500 dogs last year and about 4600 cats. With a budget of about $2.1 million it comes out to approximately $411 per animal. So, as of 2014 it costs $411 to care for a dog while in our shelter. That is the number. Period. However, in 2000 we took in 5100 dogs and 8500 cats on a budget of $1.6 million which comes to $117 per animal. Does that mean that animals in 2000 were getting 1/4 the care they are now? No.
