Topic: How much could 2 small raisins cost?

Two local vets (3 bridges and Inglis) have their pricing structures on the website.
There`s significant differences for the same treatment, is the service for something like a yearly booster going to be any different that justifies one being £48 and the other £77 ?
I don`t doubt some vets are more skilled than others but administering a routine injection shouldn`t be 62% more.

Our cats are £60 all in for both of them including a health check each year - although the health check doesn’t last very long as they are too busy trying to rip the vets arms off 😂

I had a westie..allergic to grass and £100 later got tablets from vets(ingils).. no difference and our dog groomer told us to give him the antihistamines you get from Aldi. Pop 1 in his meal at night and after 3/4 days all was good. She said if they are feeling not well/hot a quarter paracetamol. Lived for 17 years on the meds humans take.

Coco (Lab) is allergic to grass seeds in the summer plus the corn mites .. chews her paws .. 1 piriton every day sorts it .. Also our last dog had joint problems so a half soluble disprin in her water did the trick

They’re clearly related to my Daisy.
I have chainmail gloves for a reason.

Just a wee word of caution.Never ,ever give dogs ibuprofen,it causes internal bleeding ,even death. Obviously you check before giving any a pet anything ,other than what the vet recommends.

In the past we used McNeils but it wasn’t McNeil that we seen, it was the Asian guy. That was our last dog a few years ago. My wife has our new dog registered at the vets in Rosyth - can’t remember their name but I’m sure someone here will. Apparently they are cheaper than Inglis but obviously more expensive than McNeil. Plus it’s only in Rosyth so 5 mins from the house
