I don't know the reasons behind that high fee, hopefully she will find a good loving home that will have the knowledge to give her the proper after care, as her chances of possibly shooting another shunt or MVD down the road is pretty high.... |
It could be that they set the fee that high to discourage applications from people who are just looking for a cute little yorkie. There are many people who do not understand about medical issues and that might be part of the reason. I still think it is extremely high....but, if they get someone who is willing to pay that much, chances are they will be great adopters and know what they are getting involved in.
Just a thought....I am not saying that I think the fee is reasonable, just trying to understand it.
