Sometimes owners refuse to leave their pets, so that the correct procedures can be done. Sometimes owners want to set time limits, or constraints on how pets will be handled. These are issues that human doctors and nurses do not have to deal with.

It helps when clients realize that an animal hospital is like a human hospital. You should not dictate what can or cannot be done. If finances are a concern, the owner can request, and is often given an estimate. The estimate is a GUESS as to what the doctor will need to do. An owner can then advice what they can afford financially.
