Are they yorkies? Because yorkies are small they require a certain type of anesthesia to be used for safety reasons, and this type is the most expensive of course. I believe $200.00 is very reasonable. We use Petzlife too, and I hope Joey never needs this done.

$200 is good and an FYI Feb is dental month, so you may get a discount then too.

TJ has perfect teeth, never had to have a cleaning. Roxy on the other hand, since she is an MVD baby as well, her last dental cleaning, etc... cost $1000 (but he was a B. Cert Dental Vet as well).

I know I am coming in a bit late on this thread, but I had to comment. I am in Burlington County, NJ and the vet I was going to charged between $1200 - $1500 for a dental cleaning with extractions!

I am lucky that I live in a rural area I guess. My vet(and he is a Yorkie owner also and my DIL and SIL are vet techs for him) just charges 100.00 and that includes meds. I am not sure if I would be able to afford my babies if he wasn't so reasonable on his charges. But the other vets in my area charge the same.

You know, I think that is ridiculous to charge 1200 to 1500 wth extractions. Definitely on the highend.

I have a question regarding getting another yorkie has a playmate for my 3yr.old male yorkie. Is it better to get a female or male. My dog is like my shadow and I'm kinda afraid that there will be some issues since you have to pay a lot of attention to a puppy. Have you had any problems regarding this. i think since you have 5 yorkies you could give me the best advice. Thank you

Hi, you will get more answers if you start another thread, just go to the general section, and on the top left hand side of the page, you will see the words, "New Thread." I've read similar threads and people have different opinions, so much depends on the personalities of the dogs. I think in general if you have a male, you can choose a male or a female, but if you have a female, it's better to choose a male. Sometimes two females have more trouble getting along.
