Hi Matt! If I remember correctly Bosco's procedure cost about $165 but my vet is kinda pricey. I dropped him off at 7:30 a.m. and picked him up at 3 p.m. He was very groggy when I got him and walked wobbly. The vet said a lot of times dogs will throw up after the surgery when they try to eat but Bosco was OK. He didn't seem to be in much pain but I know there are several dogs in here that were in pain and needed to take medicine because of it. Good luck!!
