HopeForHounds Posted August 12, 2010 Share Posted August 12, 2010 I think if you're not a grey savvy owner it's more important to have a grey savvy vet. The most important thing with a vet, I feel, is them being able to work with you and your concerns. Actually listening to you and not just blowing you off. You said exactly what I was going to say. A greyhound savy owner, and a vet who is willing to listen, and learn. That is why I love mine. She doesn't know all things grey, but is willing to listen, and then do her research. Although I would caution that if you are a new owner who doesn't know greys that can be risky. I wouldn't let my own vet perform a spay or anyother invasive surgery without amicar. Yes, I'm sure there are many hounds that have made it though without complications. But I know there are lots who have had post surgical bleeds that went beyond nasty bruising and needed follow up care that cost money and in some cases a life.
