Exactly, we do have to do what's best for our girls. And I totally understand the concept of the vet being in business. My vet is not in it for the money either. A c/section costs around $300. and an additional $25. for after hours. So I know that he's not in it for the money. He just thinks that they can have at least 3 c/sections, of course, depending on the health of the dog. However, I am going to go with the breeders on this one as we live with our girls and know what's best for them.

I truly appreciate your expertise. You always have very informative posts!

Edited to say that I miss quoted the price of the c/section. It's approx. $250. including oxy shot and antibiotics.
