I am sure that exploratory surgery is the last option if nothing else would show something. I am getting the impression that this is indeed a very serious issue with this pup. Very sad.  |
I'm lumping what is was included in the estimate. The surgery by itself is between 1900-2500. Everything else is caring for her after surgery, tests, medication, professional services and everything else. I know you want to believe something else but this is what they told my wife.
