Slightly off topic for Thursdays, but I just read about a vet that auctions spay/neuter surgeries on EBAY. How crazy is that? What an idea! Hmmmmm.
Dr. Marcell Bonner, of Swan Harbor Animal Hospital in Baltimore, began auctioning off the surgeries earlier this year. "The whole point of it is to reduce pet overpopulation," says Bonner.
I think it would be an even better idea for a vet to auction off 10 or 20 surgeries (or however many they could) and allow the proceeds to benefit a local rescue group.
Dr. Bonner says her online marketing efforts have been heavily criticized by peers who feel it "cheapens the profession," but that has not dissuaded her from it. She plans on advertising on Craigslist next.
