When you say not cheap can you remember the ball park figure .
The initial loading dose of four was covered by the insurance so I can’t remember exactly but I think we’re talking >£1k, then the boosters as RhossT says above. Definitely not a cheap option but as ours weren’t suitable for surgery it was the only option we had (bar leaving them alone).
Annagain - we have to have regular sheath cleans too as the lumps and bumps mean it can get infected if not kept clean. My boy used to kick me in the head if I even went near that area but now he’ll let me do a half decent job without sedation - he must have got used to it! I still get the vet to do a thorough clean under sedation fairly regularly though to be on the safe side.
Mine has never got used to it - he's just even more wise to what's happening when he sees me walking towards him with the rubber gloves on! He's never been nasty though, just throws himself around to avoid me - but 16.3hh and 670kg of throwing himself around is not to be taken lightly!
