Looking for a good / affordable vet in Denver or surrounding area. I am looking for an affordable vet in the Denver area because my dog need to have 1-2 teeth extracted. I took her to a local VCA vet, but they gave me a quote of $1,200 for the work. I have a friend who had to do the same for their dog and they were charged $700. I am going to take my dog there, too, but I was hoping others may have some good suggestions.
Please let me know if you have a reliable / affordable vet in or near Denver. I am not trying to give up safety or quality for less money.
Thanks!

Foster dog needs cheap vet care My neighbors fostered a big dog named Marty. Marty's about 10, and has recently developed an aural hematoma. His ear has swollen like a ballon, and his vet quoted $800 for draining, bloodwork, and anesthesia.
Does anyone have a line on a less expensive treatment? Thanks in advance.

PetAid of Colorado is awesome. Totally helped out a friend of mine when her pets needed care while she was undergoing cancer treatment. http://www.petaidcolorado.org/
In a financial bind at the moment and our 9 year old furbaby has hurt her front paw. Need to find someone who could check her out for a low reasonable price or monthly payments without expecting anything today...... Please, any help would be greatly appreciated. She is covered by the Banfield plan but they wont do anything if we don't pay them the same day of service. Can't stand to see her in so much pain.
