thank you all so much for the encouragement. I feel at peace now that he is hopefully on his way to better health. I did have a question if this is ok to ask on the site? how much do you guys pay for the shot? it was VERY expensive and hopefully the insurance reimburses us a portion. Just curious. I googled some info and got a lot of different feed back.

again, I appreciate all the help and positive stuff!

[MENTION=19473]Pooh Bear[/MENTION] here is a thread for you. These members will also guide you.

Members, meet [MENTION=19473]Pooh Bear[/MENTION] a new member. I met her on a FB forum for bulldogs that wasn’t helping her much. Told her to join EBN for guidance. She is in the same boat as [MENTION=2091]BabyDuke[/MENTION] issue. She’s new so might have beginner issues to post. :)

Lambeau is $90, and we have him worked up to every eight weeks.

The dosage goes by weight. Jax who is a French Bulldog is like $60 or $65 I believe. Location may or may not play a part as well. Not sure which insurance you have but Jax has the Whole Pet with Wellness through Nationwide and we get 90% back.

I believe it was around $89... we normally go every 2 to 3 months now, but in the spring it's normally every 8 weeks.

Well I am sure glad I asked. would you believe we were charged $245 for 70 mg shot!?!?! I had such a feeling that this was so high.. I really have to find a new vet. I finally found one that makes house calls but this pricing is ridiculous!

How much does your EB weigh ? Oliver is 70 pounds and we were told it goes by weight but I think it is way higher than most vets.

OH MY gosh... I would call around, my vet is typically cheaper than the other vets in our area.
