Guest proudy Posted November 28, 2008 Report Share Posted November 28, 2008 My bull x pup broke his. Vet insisted on strapping it up. Greedy b*****ds were charging me £15 each time to change bandage. Cost over £200 in total. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Guest proudy Posted November 30, 2008 Report Share Posted November 30, 2008 (edited) I didn't realise til it was too late as they were taking him through for the older vet to check him between appointments. It was too hard to keep clean as the pup was a destructive little b*****d & kept chewing it off anyway. He better be worth it otherwise Learnt my lesson though & will be using different vet in future Edited November 30, 2008 by proudy Quote Link to post Share on other sites
