I feel some border on having an ethical problem and question the morality of taking someone's money because you know they are desperate and clinging to some hope that probably no longer exists. Often times the customers are not able to afford these greatly overpriced services. I wouldn't pay a vet who mixed up a formula in his basement and wanted to give it to my dog no more than I would feed a kibble made up in someone's cement mixer out in their garage or commercial raw food made by someone's relatives. Anyway, this thread was about the uselessness of titers but I'm glad it's branching into other things that are an unaffordable waste of money that lack science. |
Kind of reminds me of the women that are so desperate to have a J-Lo but and have chalk, window silicone and other remedies injected into the rears.
Let's not forget about our friend Skeptvet. He's got an entire section on just this subject.
