Mya's_Mom | 11-04-2006 10:51 PM | Your vet vs Emergency Vet I am soooooooo Happy for you and Howie. I found out having a good relationship with your vet is key. If we phone and leave a message with just a question, he will phone us back. We have had the same vet for 10 years and he is a great guy. If I had a problem with Mya he would open up on the weekend for us. That is dedication. I think of how many times I could of paid $500 just to walk in to an Emergency vet and yes I have before
I am lucky to have a vet that just tells us, if you think it is an emergency, just come in. I am still touched that he put off surgery ( a spaying ) to see Comic and when it was determined he had to be put to sleep he stayed with us in the room the whole time. Even though Comic was gone, it was hard to leave him and our vet was right there with us comforting us for about an hour. If you have a really good vet that is close by and Emergency vet may not be needed. I would rather take my dog to someone that knows her and us. Just something to think about. |
