Another question is, my friend has a Cocker Spaniel and she is getting spayed too. She asked about bloodwork and the doctor said her puppy doesn't need one before spaying and said that a bloodwork is not important???? Does my vet (we go to the same vet) has a problem or Cocker Spaniels are healthier in nature?

I had Rocky Neutered last Thursday 12/28 and they said i had a option of IV Catheder and Blood work but that the blood work was not necessary. I told them that's weird if i go in for surgery they wont do my surgery without bloodwork. She told me that out of the two if money was a concern that she would recomend that i have the iv catheder instead of blood work however i didnt have the money but i got it and had his blood work done. On my receipt i did see a charge for it on his follow up this Saturday should i ask a specific question about the blood work they did to make sure they did do it and not charge me for it without doing it.
