Hunting dog injuries & treatment cost

[slvrslngr]

Porcupine quill removal-$350 plus another $400 for a second surgery to remove a couple quills that showed up later
Barbed wire tear-$1100
Bone cancer, amputation, before and after care-$5000+
Bite wound-$800, attacking dogs owner paid

Not to mention the regular yearly visits. They’re expensive but we love them!

Our pet insurance has paid out over $12k in reimbursements over the last 7 years. Having a hard charging dog (now two) definitely gets you familiar with the vet.
