[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My dog ate 1/2 tube of diaper rash cream but had no symptoms of sickness - To be sure everything would be ok I called the vet in Arlington (Glebe Road near the Giant) and they told me (of course) he needed to come in to be checked "just in case."

When I got there, they talked me in to pumping his stomach because and I quote, "he should be fine, but there is a small chance he will have serious complications that could be fatal."  Against my gut feeling, I had the procedure done (for $600).  I know, I am foolish, but I could never live with myself if my dog died from eating a freaking quarter tube of diaper rash cream.  Even as I am writing this, I am feeling like a dumbass for letting them pump my dog's stomach.

You put your faith in these people because you don't know better yourself.  They will take you for a ride whenever they can.[/quote]

This is my vet and I have never felt pressured to pay for extra procedures. They normally give me options and I choose what I think is best for my dog. I have gone there for years without any issues. Plus my dog LOVES them so I cannot go anywhere else. [/quote]
