Hi there
I found out today from my sister, Charm, who’s dog is an two-times-a-day isullin dependant diabetic, that the vets are now saying there is a dispensing fee of $20.00 for the vets to physically hand over a vial of Insullin! This fee is on top of the acutal cost of the medication!
This cost has not added and extra $500+ a year to the cost of keeping her dog alive.
She also informed me that if you are human, you don't pay to get the required needles, but here, if you are an animal, you gotta pay.
Unfortunatley, due to the nature of her dog's health issues, there is not a pet insurance compnay who will offer to cover her dog!
What the heck is going on in this world, the rich are getting richer, poor getting poorer and it is now a case if you own a vet surgery, you can charge people more money to keep your animal (family member) alive!
Please jump on this band wagon and have your say, I personally want this issue to be raised locally and internationally, as it is wrong! (yes, i am biting my tongue and not wagging my tail)

That is so sad and ridiculous! I hope something can be done to change it. I dont understand why "they" have to make it more difficult for people who simply want to help and make a better life for their animals!

Hi bella,
My mummy wanted me to come on here and say thank you so much for standing up for us. We really appreciate it. Mummy is quite annoyed by this and so am i because now she cant buy me as many toys anymore, because she has to spend more on my medication. (not like i dont have enough toys anyway, can never have too many i guess though!). anyway bella, i will have to catch up with you soon for a playdate again. bark with you later.
Skye :)
