Thank you for saying that... that's actually one of the things that upsets me as well — some people look at me like I'm crazy for having spent what I have on my dogs, and then I worry that others will judge me for NOT opting to do surgery or MORE and MORE tests. At some point, I think we just have to let nature take its course. My dogs are so tiny, I can't imagine putting the stress of surgery and invasive testing on their little bodies. So long as they are happy and 'healthy' I can't justify the cost or risk.
