Yeah I dont trust most of them as it seems that they are mostly out for
money not helping a sick pet. I much prefer to try holistic things first.
Just a few weeks ago I had to take my chi/pom to the emergency vet cause he
was throwing up and having diarrhea they and it was a weekend night, wouldnt
even see him unless I gave them 95 dollars up front, then they had a look
at him did some tests gave him a shot for nausea and told me he had a
stomach ache and charged me 300 dollars more. It really pissed me off as I
told them he had the tummy ache when we went in.
But I did luck out and after about 5 different vets in as many years I
think(keep your fingers crossed) that I have found a good one for my Charly
and the other boys.

Cindy, You are right, I am wrong, there are a lot of things vets can
find and take care of in a dog or puppy. I try to take care of
things myself and have spent a lot at vets in the past, just to have
some kill my dogs for various reasons, like wrong anesthetic or wrong
shot or who knows.
