I do the same...my dog needed knee surgery. Vets here quoted me approx 3K + taxes. I got it done in Blaine for 1800 (no tax required). Its such a rip off here and due to the lack of price control, one of the vet I went to in Surrey quoted me $350 to get my dog spayed. I visit this other low-cost clinic (in surrey as well) and got it done for $120. Compared what they did and it's exactly the same! It definitely pays to shop around.
