Why? That is easy - because people will pay it.

I got all sky and silvas special food off amazon for a fraction of the cost of the vets , the vets rip us pet lovers off every which way possible because we care about our animalsJust rang the Vets for Metecam for my dog 100ml bottle £57 checked online 180ml bottle £24 plus £11 for a prescription so £35 for nearly twice as much like to support local business but thats crazy.

Hey, let's not slag off that wonderful profession. My dentist is just fantastic! I think the best comparison to make with vets, and I've never paid either a bill, is lawyers.Have you ever seen a vet riding in a Ford.Nope neither have I.Fucking Porsches,on many an occasion ... just like fucking dentists.

Some people think that unless these professionals drive around in old bangers and are calling out the AA or suchlike each week, they charge too much.Those fuckers! All that education and training, years of going without a decent paycheck and paying out of the nose for their training and they have the fucking nerve to get a decent paycheck and buy a nice car. Twats, all of ‘em!
Would a Ford GT be OK? Shelby Mustang? Or does it have to be a Ka?

Small independent practices have a lot of overheads. They have to pay for the rent/mortgage on the building, they have to pay nursing and admin staff and they have a lot of expensive equipment to buy (and associated upkeep costs). They also work unsociable/long hours.
