I had Chloe spayed when she was 9 months old and she did great! I was definitely worried but I feel alot better now that it is over with! And she had to have two inguinal hernias fixed. Her spay and her hernia fixed cost me $269.00! If I hadn't had the hernia's fixed the spay would have cost 70.00 plus bloodwork which was 30.00! I love the vet we have too! |
I suppose things are cheaper in AL. I had Venus spayed and microchipped last week, and the total was $128. That included the blood work, and pain meds. |
I live in Texas and was told there are discount coupons available from the Man and Beast assoc which gives a big discount in the costs. |
Holy cow we must go to the most expensive vet in the US. When I had my newest yorkie Sassy spayed she was spayed had several teeth removed and her teeth cleaned and the bill was $500. She had a more expensive drug for anastheia I think because she was under 4lbs. but geeeeeez |
:eek: So at what age do I get mines spayed once I bring her home? The breeder suggested before 8mths or before the nipples develop. I didn't think to ask what age would be to early. |
I paid 190$. I got the discount coupon from the shelter near my home for 50$. This paid for the spay. It was good at my vet and they in turn submit the coupon to the city for reimbursement. I paid extra for blood work, anesthesia gas, teeth extraction, and microchip. So the 190$ includes the coupon cost. It was a GREAT DEAL! |
I had kizzy and maggie spayed both @6 months. they also got microchipped, nails cut, trachea checks, ear mite checks because maggie had that when I got her so he rechecked all that, each of my bills were 119 and some change for everything he did. Dont have my bill right here but I know he didnt charge me full price as it was suppose to be 85 for the spay and 30 for the chip. thats 115 bucks right there. I know he didnt charge me for nail clips, he never does unless I just take them for just that. if he does other stuff, he dont charge to cut those. I'm very pleased with my vet. |
I called yesterday and was quoted $74 including the pain medication. This is a low cost spay clinic. I think they charge according to the wieght of the bitch. The area which it is in is nice. I know there are tons of Vets here and much much higher prices of course. $74 will hardly get you in and out the door on just a visit for most. |

My vet doesn't like to do early spays. He says you have to let them completely develop or you will have urinary problems later. Nancy |
So when is the best time/age? Ive always heard before the first heat cycle and I think my 13 yr old female was done at 6 months. |
I was so afraid Venus would go in heat early, so I had her done at 6 months. I couldn't risk Adonis getting her preg since he is about 2 lbs bigger than she is. And I know nothing of "heat signs". No way was I going to take a chance. Call me chickenchit, or being safe, either will do LOL. |
Thanks Bnot. I found out today with a coupon from Man/Beast Association its $50 for the spay. I called the Vet and they said additional fees are: $18 for the pain shot $15 for the heart monitor (they recommend). This worries me. Did anyone else have a heart monitor for the spaying? There was no mention of blood work. I don't recall in 1993 for my other Yorkie anything about bloodwork. |

Oh yea, and price ranges in spay/neuter costs are amazing! I work at Spay Today, a low cost spay/neuter program and lemmie tell ya we here the craziest price quotes everyday. It all depends on where you are. For ex a lady from Maryland was quoted $1,500.00 for two cat spays, no vaccs or testing included!! It's nuts! It cost me $275.00 for just Harleys neuter way back when and that didn't even include vaccs! lol |
