[QUOTE="Farminlund, post: 96278, member: 1132"] Don't do things just because the client asks for it. Our vet will always give you the economic justification for any procedure prior to undertaking it. For example a few yrs back I was having many health issues as it was severe drought & health issues had taken a toll in animal loses. I had a ~4 month old calf go down & I wanted him to see it & fix it - I nearly insisted. He said he could do nothing & to bring it to the state animal heath clinic to have a necropsy performer - result blackleg. I had an animal without an anus - thought that an operation would be justified to get a live calf that would later bring $600. He said he could do it, but that other health issues would arise & would recommend against it. So a valued vet is one that is not looking to make bucks but help his clients make informed decisions - I am thankful we such a person, despite the fact that he is an hour's drive away (there are some closer, but need I say more?).
