spaying costs - YorkieTalk.com Forums

Yoyo is going in to get spayed on Oct. 1st and her vet said it costs 150.00 which includes all the meds and cathader(sp?) and he doesn't charge for teeth getting pulled. I was wondering if thats a good price or is it way too much??

Thats a very good price!!!!!!!!! Thats about what my vet charges as well. Most other vets charge 300 and up.

That is a great price.
Do they use Isoflurane or Sevoflurane anesthesia, do surgery on a heated suface, place an IV in all patients and do pre-op blood work?

I'm not too sure. He mentioned a catheter though. I'll have to ask if they do pre-op blood work. I don't know much about spaying. He just told me that he'll give me some pain meds for her after the surgery.

That is a great price! Most places around me charge $300-$400. My friend who lives in a town 2 hours away paid $400 to get her cat spayed and declawed

That's a great price!!! Here in Lancaster, PA. just to neuter Baron it will be $350.00 plus $25.00 per front tooth, middle teeth are $50.00 each and molars are $100.00 each. I wish I lived nearer to you...Best Wishes,

When I first saw your post.. I was about to laugh so hard.. cause in canada nothing vet stuff is cheap at all...I have been paying 75 dollars for annabella for each shot each month.. so her needles are worth a fortune.. : you are very lucky..

I am will heading this direction soon myself for little Maggie. I read about this on YT...Friends of Animals | Spay/Neuter Certificates Instructions

It offers a certificate for spaying and neutering. The only thing though, you have to use a vet who participates. They will send you the list in your area.

I need to talk with my vet and find out what the costs are and if they will do anything with this program. I've not looked into any of it yet.

tumismom · 09-18-2008, 05:10 AM

wow..i think that is very very reasonable..when my girls got spayed and microchipped and got teeth removed, each of them cost $800..and my youngest one Tsubi cost a bit more cuz she was so tiny and i had extra IV, extra everything..lol

TresCutePiggies · 09-18-2008, 05:42 AM

That is a very good deal, especially if you like/trust your vet!

Rory cost over $400 (Atlanta), which seemed a bit much, but you do what you have to do!

ScootieBootie · 09-18-2008, 05:56 AM

That is an awesome price, especially if it includes teeth!

chachi · 09-18-2008, 05:58 AM

I agree that is a good price

pagonzal · 09-18-2008, 07:02 AM

That's awesome! The only place that's less than that is the SPCA, but you have to be at a certain income.
