General question about costs for drugs to treating "hot spots" and ear infections...I have 2 goldens and it seems every year their shots are due, one of them has a hot spot that gets a steroid injection and one (or both) have ear infections, so when all is said and done, I'm walking out about $500 lighter for everything for annual shots, steroid, and pills. Does that seem somewhat reasonable to treat 70-80# dogs???

Sure enough, today I see one has a hot spot on his rear hip and I cleaned both of their ears, one of which probably has an ear infection.
