A lot of people just don't really care whether their dog is with them or not. It's just more convenient to leave them at the vet.

This is maybe the second time I've heard of the spay tattoo thing. It's not routine. Apparently some vets decide they can make decision for an animal's owner. Very sad. If a vet tattooed my dog without permission..........I don't think they would be my vet anymore!

So many vets don't give pain meds b/c it can cause pups to be too active. I suppose that is up to each vet, but I could never go for that one unless a medical problem made pain meds very dangerous. Some can be more sedating than others and those are sometimes good choices.
