Of course you have to pay the bill. You aggreed to the proceedure. Granted it didn't work. But you agreed to try it.
If your Doctor gave you a shot to try and cure your illness and the shot didn't work you still have to pay for the visit and the shot. In fact you would have to pay for another visit and a second treatment until something did work.

I disagree. There is a legal term called detriment of reliability. Meaning if a professional advises you to follow a certain course of action and you suffer damages related to that then they are liable for your damages. Your analogy would be comparable if the wires held for the time they were supposed to and the dog did not heal. A more comparable situation would be if you broke your leg and the doctor placed a cast and the cast fell off the next day. The doctor would be responsible for his shoddy work, not you.
