Lots of vets do things to keep clients. Does not mean I would EVER let one of them mess around with my pups legs.

When I see people posting these things about their wonderful vets doing such surgeries, I wonder if they would go to their family physician and ask for them to do a knee replacement.

WHY do we treat animals any different than we do outselves is the question I believe needs to be asked.

As for breeders and cheap vets....the reason for that is the bottom line. And, then they tell me they are breeding for the betterment of the breed. WhatEVER. It is about the money if you must bargain shop for vetting. My opinion!

I personally think that knocking off $200 for a puppy who has LP at such a young age, is a rip off. My opinion! I would not walk away, I would run.
