We do KC because I can not imagine having 5 or 6 dogs in my house,all doing antibiotic (sometimes it takes several rounds per dog),plus cough meds. The cost would be pretty bad as well as my sanity gone from caring for that many ill at once.
So your question being was the cost $600 to high. I would of choked and my vet will atleast let me pay it out when I have a sudden large bill.
I do purchase my meds from the vet,yes I know that there is a markup. But this is part of what keeps his small business going. If this was a large clinic with several vets then I would purchase online.
So, if you subtract the chip and the Trifexis, mine would have been $175.
Pretty close.
