Question Cost of Bringing Dog to the U.K.

I posted this on the U.K. page, and someone suggested that I ask here...

I've done the research and spoken with DEFRA - very helpful! - so I know what I need to do... And it's not cheap! So far, I'm budgeting the following:

$237 - rabies blood test

$500 - other related vet fees, including office visits and USDA paperwork

$955 - British Airways transport (includes U.K. animal reception fees)

So far, I'm at nearly $1,700 and I'm sure other expenses will arise. If you brought in your dog or cat, did you pay about this much? Any other expenses I should be prepared for? Tips to make it less expensive?

Thanks!
