My dogs have all been spayed or neutered and picked up on the same day.
I insist on it, or go elsewhere.
Why?
Simple: a vet requiring an overnight stay for a scheduled healthy dog surgery is just bill-padding.
About 90 percent of the time, dogs left overnight at the vet are being left without a human attendant of any kind. Instead, they are left in a strange kennel room with strange smells and often with strange noises.
Why would I pay for no care and added stress on my dog, especially when that overnight stay can tack $1,000 more on to the bill?
In 2015, New Jersey passed “Betsy's Law” which requires veterinarians and animal hospitals to inform pet owners in writing if they do not have staff present for 24-hour monitoring.
Research cited in the development of "Betsy's Law," found roughly 90 percent of veterinary offices and animal hospitals in the state did *not* provide 24-hour, on-site, overnight supervision for pets.
