A veterinarian isn't allowed to simply keep your pet until you've paid the full bill. There are clear rules about this. Yet, that's exactly what happened to Mia from Blankenberge. "For a simple operation, the vet charged €1,700. Because I couldn't afford that amount right away, she refused to give my dog back."
