“He had all of the tests done, it cost me a few hundred dollars, so another trip to the vet likely wouldn’t do any good unless I sought out a specialist”
Not true. You stated in a prior post that the labs and checkup were over a year ago.
Most veterinarians recommend annual checkups, dental exams, lab work as indicated, then they can compare the results with the previous tests.
Yep, that’s about right, a few hundred a year for routine care.
That’s the new normal for pet care. You can always negotiate with your vet about what tests are a priority versus what tests can be skipped.
Good luck
