We just had our old male to the vet for teeth cleaning and to remove 2 tumors.
It cost us, $95. for cleaning, $40. to remove tumors, and $75. to have them sent to the lab.

Thanks, I was just wondering they said around 150 for removing two tumors one which was rather large and 45 for having them tested.

The answer to this question depends totally on the area of the country, the cost of histopathology, and your veterinarians over head costs. There is no way to compare things here and have any kind of apples to apples comparason.

The main reason i don't own more dogs than I do is vet costs. It's outragous, and hits you when you least suspect it. $45 just to walk through the door of the building, then they charge way too much for stuff.

Twenty years ago it would have been 10 bucks. I had one removed from a dog a year ago for 120.

Well we had them removed today everything went well just a HUGE cut, really feeling sorry for her. Total cost was 148 for removel (they were located in her utter area) so I didn't feel that was to bad.
