different opinion

I'd be curious as to what vet looked at that puppy, as the vet I use there is nothing like the one described in the review. . I've always been given clear explanations and any options that are available. Those options include second opinions and they've never balked at my expressing contrary opinions and discussing them with me.



I'm curious as to how much the breeders' vet charged for all the tests on the puppy. If it was a problem with the patella, shouldn't an x-ray have been enough? I've bought puppies from breeders and have learned from experience to pick a vet other than the breeders' as they've turned out to be rather expensive. In all fairness however, I don't know this breeders' vet.



Granted, the VCA could be less expensive, but it should be kept in mind that they are a franchise and not a private practice.

Uncaring Vet

I am a breeder who sent a puppy to someone in Boston and they took it to this vet. They told the person the puppy was unhealthy and would need surgery for a patella. I tried talking to the vet and she did not even want to talk to me. She treated me like I was an uncaring breeder. When I got the puppy back I immeditaly took her to my vet. She ran all kinds of test and found nothing wrong and could not even understand why she would need surgy for her patella it was only a one and as she gets older it might just go away on its own. I can't believe some vet would just assume the worse and want to preform unnecessy surgeries. I believe the are only in itfor the money and do not care for the animals. My vet also wanted to discuss this with them and they refused
