I thought the same $40 bucks, wow, i can save the money up when the dysplasia hits, guess what? it hits before they are a year.
get insurance for at least 2 years, it will more then pay for it self if something happens.
I couldn't imagine not getting the surgery for stormy, now i have to pay a lot more then insurance premium.
