I can understand what your saying completely. When I moved to where I live now, 18 years ago, we had a good, old fashioned VET right down the road. He was the kind that cared about the animals more than the money. I mean how many Vets do you know that would tell you it's not worth spending, '$25 dollars for a shot for a 25 cent cat', or one that would go through the extra time and expense to both put in and take out a pin in a broken hind leg, for free... (I had paid basically just for him to set it which was all I could afford at the time)? He was a good guy and the clinic is still very reputible, but based on experiences after the origional owner died tells me they are all about the money. I realized this when I took in one of my dogs who had a hige growth on her neck. They looked at it, told me it was a tumor (well DUH !!!!) and they could do nothing about it. Then they handed me a bill for $75....
Beyond that, my current and past dogs all live/live on a good medium grade, dry food along with table scraps to keep them healthy. As far as medicines they get the flea/tick/mosquito drops down the back when required. Beyond that, I honestly don't worry about then getting, or needing anything else. That said I have had at least one dog at all times, and at one time as many as 7 in the last 20 years. In that time I have had only one die from medical complications and that was the one with the tumor. All of the others died from old age, or some sort of accident.

Today's Featured Article - Timing Your Magneto Ignition Tractor - by Chris Pratt. If you have done major engine work or restored your tractor, chances are you removed the magneto and spark plug wires and eventually reached the point where you had to put it all back together and make it run. On our first cosmetic restoration, not having a manual, we carefully marked the wires, taped the magneto in the position it came off, and were careful not to turn the engine over while we had these components off. We thought we could get by with this since the engine ran perfectly and would not need any internal work. After the cleanup and painting was done, we began reassembly and finally came to t
