Their latest episode partly takes place in Victoria. S52.E8.

"The rising cost of pet care". Quite interesting. Did you know that about half the vet clinics in Saanich are owned by big corporations? Some of these corporations increased pricing 5x last year alone.

Does it matter who owns my vet care centre?

I can always ask.

I do most of my own veterinary pet care based on YouTube learning. The good news is you are allowed to euthanise your pet (on your own) if the surgery looks too complicated.

^I'm assuming that is why you no longer have any pets.
