The consult is the physical exam. Honestly, I would call and see if you can find a different vet that doesn't charge for nail trims. Often this can be done by a vet tech and you wont be charged for an exam. However, you would probably have to be a client/have had an exam by that practice before you could take advantage of that.
Don't get it done at a Vet. They always cost more money for something that can be done by yourself or by a groomer for alot less.
Go to a Groomer. It will be cheaper then that. $45 sounds alittle to steep just for a nail trimming. go to www.google.com and search your City and State and Dog Groomer (Example) * Jacksonville Florida Dog Groomer. * You will get a list of Dog Groomers in your city & state, or look in the phone book. Don't pay that price tho that is to much.
i dont trust banfield i went their once at my mothers behest and they nearly cut the vessels in the nails!.
i told them i didnt need his nails clipped they insisted he did i had his nails just as trimmed as they should be .
then then proceeded to try and grab his paw and show me where to trim they pointed to the root of his nail! i wouldnt trust those people witha dead dog let alone a living one.
find another vet some do it for free others charge around 25.00
thats really strange my vet does it for free, they even showed me how to do it myself safely and told me what tools it need. if you arent a patient there of course they are going to charge you steeply. i suggest you go to your normal vet and get them to help out.
