Shortage of vets, page-9

These comments remind me of my year 11 economics text book. Maybe sensible in theory but demonstrates a complete lack of understanding of this industry in these times. People actually do shop around for vets based on price, especially in lower socioeconomic areas - which never ceases to amaze me.

An example:

Pet owner: “ how much is your consultation fee?”

Me: “what is it for?”

Pet owner: “Oh my dog just got run over by a car.....”

Me: stunned silence.....
