We went to a Chinese restaurant recently and a friend was telling me how a neighbour's dog attacked one of his chickens, causing a nasty injury. He asked his wife if she wanted him to put the chicken down, to end it's suffering, but his wife insisted they should take it to the vet. The chicken was treated as a kind of family pet and was even allowed to come inside the house.
Anyway, they took it to the vet and was very shocked and angry to get a bill for $650! He told me he had spent more than $7,000 in the past for his dog who needed surgery on his legs, but that was different as the dog was like a family member.
