I know first hand how this can get out of hand. I don't know about everyone else but I plan to take any saved to my shelter. We have a great medical team. Usually as long as they are not dying and you let the vet know they will give a health certificate to save a dog. The one I pulled from lancaster was literally 1/2 an hour away from being pts- a 10 yr old cocker spaniel with a heart murmur and dry eye, they health cert'd her and put her on plane and I picked her up and she was in foster for 2 weeks until she was healthy enough for adoption then got adopted the same day! It was the best feeling to know I helped save her- but the costs of all that was about $300- so yes please make sure you can afford any emergent medical care before pulling.
