HIw much will it be to get my dogs wound drained?

My 9 year old rottie mix had surgery a few weeks ago but it looks like the wound has some fluid build up in it, I'm going to make a vet appointment soon but I'm just wondering how much it'll probably be?

    Ask the vet, that performed the surgery.

    It ought to be part of the follow-up care for the initial surgery. Call the vet and get the dog in, or it may cost a lot more if it gets serious.

    ask the treating vet their costs are individual.

    Presuming it's just a seroma, if you came to my hospital, the charge would be zero. A nurse would look at it and then aspirate the fluid. It takes all of about three minutes - no doctor required.

    If they schedule you with the doc, plan on paying an office call fee. Hopefully they have a reduced fee for follow-up appointments.

    Vets charge differently. Call yours and ask.

    Call and ASK your vet's office. There are NO "set" vet fees, or charges. They VARY from office to office, town to town and state to state.
