It is what it is. Your friend now knows what emergency surgery costs, once the dog is stable for a few months he can talk to the vet about what they can skip, its the x-rays and the lab work that add up.
Does your friend have dog health insurance? This is when people think it would have been a good idea.
I can’t say it enough, increase water intake, keep the bladder flushed.
PS: The specialist may want to see him every 3-4 months, then every 6 months…..it might not be so bad. In my experience it’s the regular vets that have you coming back and forth more frequently.
