I know this topic has been discussed before but I can't find the thread. I have an established vet in Columbia. I think she does a great job. She has a philosophy to do everything possible for a pet. She convinced me to start cleaning my dogs teeth a few years ago. I was skeptical at first but I think it's important. Yes it's expensive, but my dog is good to me so I want to be good to him.
Her teeth cleaning procedure now includes dental X-rays which adds another 400 to the bill for a total of almost 900. I just can't see the need for dental x-rays for a dog but maybe I'm just being cheap. What's the resident vets say on the topic? Her partner at her practice is a certified animal vet or something like that so I suspect they push the procedure to benefit the practice, which I get. I'm part of a partnership too and the goal is to serve our clients and make money. I just think this part of the procedure is unnecessary to protect my hunting buddy and that's my ultimate goal, if that cost 900 then I will suck it up.
