I've paid 2k+ vet bills. Shit happens.
Last year my dog ate a family pack of pork that was left on the counter....Packaging and all. Vomited up the meat but not the package
Off we rushed to the vet for x-rays and shit. X-rays showed nothing but as they prepared to cut into him just to be sure I received a phone call. The packaging was found in the living room under the couch.
Still cost me around $400 if I remember correctly.
