Thank you for all the responses on my repoduction question - it seems that
implants can run from $200 to Iza's $2210 - on the $200 side I think that is
only the implant - in my area I got quotes from $350 to 1,200 for the implant
only . . . both ends are board certified vets - what can make the price vary by
that much?
I hope that the $2210 quote includes the stud fee, sending the sperm and the
progesterone tests . . . otherwise - that litter is getting pretty expensive .
. .
Lets see - average stud fee????????????????????????????????? @?? $750
sending sperm?????????????????????????????????????????????????? ?@??? 300
tests for bitch - 4-5 progesterone tests??????????????????@????350
implant??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????@??? 600
average of all answers
Total??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
$2,000.00
Does everyone thing this is a correct picture?

Repro questions.....ah, a topic I will participate in!
.....One thing I learned at the education seminar at the Nat'l, and maybe
everyone else already knows it.....Progesterone levels (actually any blood
test for a hormone level) should be drawn in a red top tube...not the red &
grey with the serum separator in it. The red and grey top tubes can cause a
lower than correct level.....Interesting!!

PS: My vet charges $250 which includes the follow up ultrasound :-)

I am looking at my bill from my repro vet (In Malvern, PA & she is VERY good
& has been doing this for a LOOONG time) - total $2,210. This includes her
stay of 8 days at $55./day, simply because I couldn't go to her with my
bitch every other day or whatever for progesterone tests, so I left her
there for 8 days' so the total bill reflects not only her stay, but the
daily progesterone tests, anesthesia, vaginal cytology, vaginoscopy
(whatever that is), anesthesia, and on and on. BUT . . . SHE is worth it -
this was my MVXCH Karizma's Liberia von Loar, bred to "Oscar". Tomorrow, I
am scheduled to do an ultra-sound with the super-duper ultrasound vet
(around $400.) I hope he finds puppies - hahahahaha - I have to laugh,
because I might cry. I will post the results of the ultra-sound tomorrow.
