Our dog passed away this year. She had some ER visits which were expensive, which really ran up the numbers overall.
The average cost of a normal outpatient vet visit was $455.
The average cost of a ER visit was $1500.
The highest ER vet bill was $6,662.93.
It cost $679 to say goodbye to Cookie at home.
I'm not in a hurry to get another pet. Mila's bills are far more normal, even though she is 18 and has many chronic illnesses. Dogs seem to cost a lot more somehow.
