2008-11-18 Crunch time for dogs and their owners Dream Dogs

The reason for dogs losing their homes is due to a shortage of money to pay veterinary bills and the insurance premiums for pets that are soaring sky high.

A veterinary bill can average about three hundred pounds a year for a dog and if there is a more complicated condition the cost can run into thousands of pounds.

2008-11-16 City seeking vets input on rabies Local Government

The city formed a committee to study the issue, Johnson said, after a Wichita Eagle story in March expressed concern from some dog owners that yearly rabies vaccinations may be unnecessary and even harmful to pets.

The survey asks whether individual veterinarians should be "legally allowed individual discretion" in determining how often the vaccine is given, and whether the vets think administering the vaccine on a multiyear basis, rather than annually, would harm human health or improve dogs health.
