We don't have a Banfield close to us and I don't know much about them but in so far as a spay/neuter I live in NJ and our vet charges $350. I personally think that is criminal but he's a good vet and I am afraid to take my Yorkies anywhere else. Ten years ago, I took my Newman to be neutered and used a spay/neuter clinic and paid $175 and he ended up with an abcess on his penis and had trouble with his throat. He now has a collapsed trachea that I can't help but feel was helped along by that spay/neuter ten years earlier. That seems fairly cheap for all you are getting, especially if it includes the spay/neuter. If we should get a Banfield close by I think it's something I'd atleast check into. Pet care is so expensive. Elaine |
