Dogs are so expensive >__<

You could have bought some FISH-ZOLE tablets, without an rx, it's the same thing as Metronidazole, 100 tabs for less than $20.
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.

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! ) and he's a great guy. I actually enjoy vet visits now.
