I have no problem with this policy. This not only helps the vet, it helps the bill paying customer as well-our fees won't be increased due to non paying owners. My vet's policy is this exact same and I have no problem with it. If you make the choice to have pets, you need to also be financially responsible for them! If you don't have an extra $500, you have more problems then just paying a vet bil. Vets are business people with bills, families, college loans, mortgages ect just like everyone!

I guess i view it.........you wouldn't go get your hair cut and expect to pay for it next month?

I understand people are short on money ect but you can't expect the vet to make exceptions or he/she would never get paid!
