I don't think the cost of the surgery is crazy as my vet is one that does not charge over 1000 for a lp surgery and it's not because he is a bad vet it's because he has 4 other locations and he is also a repro vet so he can afford to lower his costs. In fact a friend of mine had LP surgery done on one of her pups and her total costs including medications and bloodwork prior to the surgery was only 800. |
I totally agree with you here, most byb's don't even know that the puppy has LP and if they did, they would never inform the buyer. we really don't know for sure if she said LP cost only $300, they're may be some misunderstanding on the buyers part. We only have one side of the story. However, if she doesn't want to lower the cost of the pup to cover the cost of surgery that's her choice.
