It seems to me like these private vet practices are looking to take all you have knowing that you will do practically anything for little fur family member, even shell out thousands to even diagnose them.

I just happen to have a bill from my doctor for a sonogram. The total is $610.00 for that alone. There is very little difference for this type of thing from a cost standpoint, granted I have not needed to have an ultrasound performed on my pet so I cannot give you a veterinary comparison. I wish you the best of luck with your Yorkie and I do realize that it is quite painful when our pets come down with a serious illness that is not inexpensive to treat. Please keep us updated.
