So, just wondering what a vet visit $$ as I think we need to take the pooch to see the vet. I don't know if she tripped on the ice out back or had a semi-stroke or what, but her hind quarters are not functioning right (aka-her back leg no one side)...
DH says to wait and see if her legs improve-like she might have just tripped, but I'm not so sure. I know she's old, but I'm not ready for this. She 'managed' fine to come out to the kitchen for a treat and is better walking on carpet than a smooth surface-traction?
I'm considering making an appt to take her, but want to be prepared for the possible $ (sans shots, prescriptions, etc...).
TIA!
Re: How much is a vet visit?
I would say around $60. If they have to keep her for a day or night they'll charge you a vet boarding fee on top of that.
Our visits with Miller always end up between $100 and $200, but that usually involves blood work and/or her glucose curve.
I agree, something in the $60+/- range probably. If they run any tests or give prescriptions the price will go up. Maybe arthritis is the culprit?
Not sure arthritis would hit her so fast, but my sis said her symptoms are similar to what her dog had before he passed away...
Thanks ladies!
When Nika hurt her leg, we had the normal vet visit cost (about $50) plus "doggie" advil...which I think was about $10.
