Hiya - when booking in for a scan at my vets for my bitch I was told I had to wait until they called me to go in and get it done which could be any time when they are open (8am-7pm) When I asked for a rough time as in am/pm they couldnt even give me that

Is this normal? Its just a pain as me and my partner have saved all our holiday for when/if the puppies are born and would be annoyed if I wasted a days holiday when they could call me at 5, which could be used for the puppies!

Thanks

Sounds a bit odd to me. Is it your normal vet or a specialist. I had my girls scanned at a normal vet and had a normal appointment. I obviously made them aware before hand. I dont knw if it is the same at a specialist though.

Yeh this is just at my normal vet! It was really frustrating because the vet said he could even do saturdays but as soon as i got through to reception they said they dont do it on Saturdays and have to book in for the whole day! Frustrating!

Unfortunately I dont! I may have to search the Essex area though!

That sounds completely unreasonable. Perhaps it's worth phoning around other vets - or asking people here for other recommendations. Not my area I'm afraid.

whereabouts are you? . i know of two in Kent.

I am in Chelmsford Essex if anyone knows of any near?

I will try ringing the other local vets, but they are often picky about not being registered there!

I did think it was a bit odd - but as it was the first time I perhaps thought it may be normal!

that is really strange for your vet to suggest that you just need to book her in when she would be approx 33 days if you can find a sheep scanner as already suggested by dexter it would most definately be more accurate just thinking unless your vet doesnt have a scanner and has to get one bought in on a certain day :-)
