Vet bills are a good reason not to have pets.
I would rather not bring them to the vetVet bills are a good reason not to have pets.
Vets, period. We've had several close up shop around here over the last 10 years or so. Then again, if someone was a good vet, it wouldn't matter one bit to me what color her hair was or how many tattoos she had.Good Vets are a dying breed. Our good vet around here sold out to a female vet with pink and purple hair and semi-retired. He still helps out when he is needed.
At least here, licensed Vets have to be MD's (GP's) first. Just so happens that the guy I rent hay ground from is a vet and owns his own practice so we get excellent care for the animals at a reduce cost. In fact, he makes house calls.Just remember that veterinarians require many years of eduction before they can set up a practice which in itself is an expensive operation.
If they work with large animals they can be injured and do get to work in some pretty ugly situations.
