Re: Early Spay/Neuter ***
Where I live 'low cost' spay/neuter costs around $130-$150, unless you go to the humane society it's even cheaper there. The humane society here gets mixed reviews for spay/neuter, a friend of mine had her dog spayed at the humane society and the dog got a staph infection and died. And I am not slamming all clinics, only the ones that I am familiar with in the area where I live
My vet charged $300 to neuter Beck and I about fell over, I was so startled by the price that I delayed the procedure and talked to a friend of mine who is a large animal vet. She said that if everything goes well, the low cost spay/neuter is just fine, but if the dog has difficulty during the procedure it probably won't be detected in time to reverse it, and that there is no way that you can start an IV in time to save a puppy during surgery, their blood pressure drops so quickly you can't get one started. She said that surgery is a dumb thing to try to save money on.
