I'm sure the vet charged alot more than that.
And yes you are correct in your assumption of vets and their charges.
I am bottle nursing 5 pups right now, the vet wanted to charge me $625 for the first round of puppy shots, I told them that the puppys will only be getting a wellness check, and their rabies shots when needed. They also tried blasting me for putting the puppies on a raw diet when the time comes. :rolleyes:
Ouch, that's expensive. I'm sure most of the shots aren't really need anyways. These animals were fine 100 years ago and they will be fine now. I get my dog his needed shots and the ones my kennel requires and that's it.
My favorite part about my whole situation was the meds didn't even work completely. I didn't take him back though I just let him work it out on his own and gave him some canned pumpkin. Feel free to flame me for that, I don't care he's fine now.
I have offically completely switched vets now anyways, my new vet has a lot of experience with reptiles (score! :D) and he's a great guy. I actually enjoy vet visits now. :)
