Dazzam 239 Posted January 25, 2012 Report Share Posted January 25, 2012 Was talking to a vet the other day who advised me to wait until the Jills are in season before having a vasectomy done on a Hob as it is much more successful on sniping the correct tubes. I thought this sounded like good advice as i know of other folk who used a different vet who didn't give them this advice and it turned out unsuccessful. Quote Link to post
Jamie m 668 Posted January 25, 2012 Report Share Posted January 25, 2012 Not in your area but £70 down here That's not a bad price westy Quote Link to post
theferreter 311 Posted January 25, 2012 Report Share Posted January 25, 2012 Not in your area but £70 down here i paid £65 well worth the money the vet did a good job on him Quote Link to post

The op needs doing ASAP mate as the hob needs testing a few times to see if he's firing lives or not,mines in next week. Quote Link to post
mike1458 14 Posted January 26, 2012 Report Share Posted January 26, 2012 FAO Westy 76. How do you test to see if the vasec hob is firing blanks or not? Not having a dog, just curious as I also thought there was no guarantee with vasec hobs. Mike Quote Link to post
The one 8,396 Posted January 26, 2012 Report Share Posted January 26, 2012 Your newly snipped hob has to wait a period of time to empty his tanks . then after i think its three months you get to try him and if the jill gets pregnant the vets not done the job right Quote Link to post
