Except the insurance companies are beginning to jump on the pet wagon as more and more vets coming out of school are being educated to charge big bucks. This is all thanks to the animal rights group as it is one more step towards getting animals recognized as having the same rights as we do.
So enjoy while we can but that golden retriever will be suing in the near future if AR has their way.

Two patients limp into two different medical clinics with the same complaint. ? Both have trouble walking and appear to require a hip replacement. The FIRST patient is examined within the hour, is x-rayed the same day and has a time booked for surgery the following week. The SECOND sees his family doctor after waiting 3 weeks for an appointment, then waits 8 weeks to see a specialist, then gets an x-ray, which isn't reviewed for another week and finally has his surgery scheduled for 6 months from then. Why the different treatment for the two patients? The FIRST is a Golden Retriever. The SECOND is a Senior Citizen. Next time take me to a vet! Okay, so let me ruin the joke. Golden Retrievers don't sue their vets. They also are grateful for the care they receive, instead of complaining all over the world about how they had to wait. Our litigious society has created the mess in the system. Malpractice insurance for General Family doctors runs upwards of $150,000 per year. They have to pay it or risk losing everything they've worked for. We don't need socialized medicine. We need a self-responsible society - if we took care of our own bodies, we wouldn't be relying so heavily on the medical system. Also, most dogs are nicer than most people. -- "no cause is lost if there is but one fool to fight for it" ~Will Turner~ ~Pirate's of the Caribbean @ World's End~ www.moliberty.org http://417-political-pundit.blogspot.com The power to tax involves the power to destroy. ~Justice John Marshall~ Just because you do not take an interest in politics doesn't mean politics won't take an interest in you! -Pericles (430 B.C.)
