The Vet

A little off topic but I just had to tell someone.  I took my dog to the vet today for a Lyme disease shot.  So I get there and go to check in when they tell me he needs two other shots, which I asked about when I made the appointment but they said he was fine on those.  So I'm like OK how much are they?  She says, "$22, $24, $25."  I say OK do them all today.  Then after the shots the vet says something about some test he needs done, I tell him we'll do it next time.  I go to check out and she says, "That'll be $166."  I almost said are you out of your fucking mind?  They charged me $53 for the visit, $5 for hazardous waste disposal, and pre-paid $37 for the test on his next visit.  Actually thinking about switching vet's now.  On a lighter note I did get to see a 150lb horse of a dog, it was a St. Bernard.

  11. That is a load of horse shit, also if he has ever been bitten by a deer tick he has lyme disease already and it cannot be cured.
