Damn I spent like 1k to put my dog down when it was her time. Spent like 10k on bills the previous 6 months to keep her around so it didn’t seem like much to me since I would have paid anything to make her healthy again. For a large animal like a horse that seems.. cheap I guess?

It does not cost 1k to have a dog put down. You got seriously ripped off.

Yeah I am wondering how in the f it cost $1000. And $10k for the last year of life. I live in Seattle, super high CoL and vet costs in the city. That would be insane even for here multiple times over.

Seems like something they would do out here.

The cost for her last months of life was she was on a ton of meds and I was taking her in like every week for assessments and check ups. She was my girl so I didn’t mind. I’m in SoCal with ties to Seattle. I was giving my dog like 15 pills a day before her GDV happened. I’m glad I got my 14 years, she was likely closer to 17-18 when she passed

It was I think the fact that I brought her there that morning and a couple things where done during the assessment. You are correct when I look back it wasn’t just the putting down part that cost me that much.

The biggest cost to me was losing my dog, GDV is a son a a bitch that more owners should be aware of. Nowadays when a dog gets fixed they can do something to prevent it.
