There is a far greater anesthesia risk with 'low cost' spay/neuters. When I had Beck neutered I was a bit shocked at the expense, she explained that what I was paying for was intubation, IV administered anesthesia and electronic monitoring. She said that when you get a 'bargain' spay/neuter the vet uses gas or guesses at the amount of injected anesthesia and does not intubate or monitor, and that is fine 'unless' the dog runs into a problem during the procedure, and if it does the vet will most likely not be able to keep it alive.
