Vet fees

[horseymadamz]

Does anyone know roughly how much vets charge to put dogs down these days

[showjumper007]

Why

[squidgetmidget]

ours is about £60 just for pts. if you have pts and cremation then its about £75. or individual cremation is the £60 plus £80-106 depending on size.

Yeah found out it's 69 pounds I got to have my 4 yr old Akita put down on Friday I feel sick with the thought :@(

So sorry to hear your sad news. We are thinking about you and hope it all goes as well as possible.

she has a disease that makes her skin allergic to everything and sore and her nose peels all the time and she gets really weak and limps alot so she needs constant steriods and anti biotics costs about £100 a month to keep her stable on meds and i just cant afford to continue to do it for the rest of her life, i rang the dog trust thinking she might have a better chance in life if someone would take her on and they rehome her but they said they wouldnt take her and so the vet said only other option was putting her down it seems so cruel at 4yrs old and when she on the meds she a different dog altogether bounds around the fields is playful affectionate bright then the minute they end she goes straight back to very poorly

i agree with pts....

for the dogs sake its the right thing to do, giving her away wouldnt be the best thing for the dog

*hugs*, very hard but you will sleep at night knowing shes at peace xx

Cried all day yesterday she came bounding in thinking was taking her walking feel like a murderer and that I failed her I know it was nicer thing to do but she was only 4 it seems so wrong
