Two patients limp into two different medical clinics with the same complaint. Both have trouble walking and appear to require a hip replacement.
The first patient is examined within the hour, is x-rayed the same day and has a time booked for surgery the following week.
The second patient sees his family doctor after waiting a week for an appointment, then waits six weeks to see a specialist, then gets an x-ray, which isn't reviewed for another month and finally has his surgery scheduled for three months from then.
Why the different treatment for the two patients ?
The first is a golden retriever.
The second is a senior citizen.

And that is what will happen if we get socialized medicine like so many have been proposing. Ask our friends in Canada!

People will forget what you said.
People will forget what you did.
But people will never forget how you made them feel.

I'm gonna start going to the vet!

I don't have to attend every argument I'm invited to.

This is an age in which one cannot find common sense without a search warrant.

When my puppy was borned, she had an umbilical hernia.

My ex wifes friend sort of developed one over time or something...can't remember the details, as this was a year or so ago.

My dogs surgery cost $15.00, since we were there getting her spayed, which cost around $95.00.

My ex wifes friends surgery set her back around $1200.00

lol@her.

This just isn't funny. It's too shameful.

Talk is cheap because supply exceeds demand.

Politicians and diapers have one thing in common. They should both be
changed regularly and for the same reason.

The poor taste is a civilized society that allows better treatment for animals than for people Sweetie.
