I took Dolly to the vet today to see if she was ready for her spay (the vet wanted to wait to see if she would loose her teeth or need any extracted). We decided to wait a few weeks but she gave me a quote for the surgery...$500. Well that seemed a bit pricey (esp. since that's with a 10% discount!). That price includes the spay, IV fluids, bloodwork, ECG, pain meds and 2 extractions.

I am wondering if I should "shop" around for a better price or suck it up and go with this vet. I know I can get it cheaper at like the humane society but I want to make sure she is with a vet who knows what they are doing esp. with a little dog.

Anyone know any more affordable but also reliable (and good with little Yorkies!) in the Chandler/Phoenix/Tempe area?
