I had always used booval vet, until now. I took my girl in after i noticed blood stain coming out of her nose. They noticed her lymph node was enlarged and put her on antibiotics. they said i needed to put my 12 year old under to have x-rays, flushed out her nose if the antibiotics did not work. They couldn't find anything and gave me more antibiotics and if it continues i would need to see a specialist. She was on the antibiotics 2 days later she had 2 massive nose bleeds and skin tissue came out. I called UQ vet who said bring her in with the referral to see the medic. The medic noticed the lymph node up. I said booval said the same thing. She did a simple test to check for cancer, which came back positive. I believe that the flushing of the nose and putting my girl under at an old age contributed in the cancer spreading. I took her home and spent 2 days with her before i had to put her to sleep. If Booval would have done that test instead of unnecessary tests costing a fortune i would have been able to spend a quality 2 weeks giving her stuff she couldn't normally have instead of 2 days. It tares my heart out she had to go through this.
