Default Neutering

Hi,
I'm going to get my male GSD neutered, and wanted to know what the average cost for that is. Oh, and he weighs 80 lbs.
Thanks,
Devonte'

Where I live I've called around and some (most) vets seem to price it based on weight of dog at time of neuter.

I've found prices ranging from a little over $70 (at a clinic where they don't charge by weight) to over $150.

I would call around to find a vet that you trust your dog with and that you can afford for the neuter.

I had posted an ad on Craigslist asking for recommendations in the "Pets" section and got a lot of responses for good clinics (and some not so good).

Here it's about $100, but you can get a spay/neuter voucher.

It will probably be around $100~150 for 80lbs and higher.

It depends on where you live. The best way to find out would be to call vets in your area. Where I live the price for spays and neuters is many times over the ones people have quoted in this thread, but I live in the SF Bay Area where everything is more expensive, so the prices I've paid wouldn't be very helpful information to you.

Yeah, the vets around me aren't very good or helpfull. They try and pressure you into getting your dog more shots, their probably in it for the money. But yeah I wanted to see what other people payed so I don't get ripped off. Thanks for the info.

It is a hassle to call that many vets but worth the money and piece of mind when you find a good vet !!
