"Bo" The Dog

This would be funny if it weren't so true!!!


My father-in-law had prostate surgery. We brought him to the hospital at 7:30 a.m., and he was operated on at eight. We were amazed when the hospital called at noon to tell us he could go home.

Two months later our beagle, Bo also had prostate surgery. When I brought him in, I asked the veterinarian what time I should pick him up. The vet told me Bo would remain overnight.


"Overnight?" I said."My father-in-law came home the same day."


The vet looked at me and said, "Bo's not on Medicare!"

Yes, this is True!! Vets are gettin out of control on the prices they charge. Rediculous to have an animal stay over----especially when there's no one there to watch them anyway. Demand they come back home with you---It's your animal, & they'll do much better in their owners care. Everyone knows that!! Take it bk in the next day if necessary, forget the overnights!
