Working in a pet hospital can be so frustrating. 
Sorry if this offends anyone, but what gets to me 
are well meaning pet owners who try to save a 
little money and treat "Fluffy" at home. Many of 
them end up with bills that are even higher since 
not only does the initial problem need to be 
treated (usually worsened by the delay) but 
sometimes the owner's treatment must also be 
treated.
