You are not alone in this lol I have a dog and about the only time she is alone is when I go grocery shopping. She is 11 and its scares me to death she is starting to get older. AND she has better health insurance than I do.

"Radiography allows us to visualize bone, cartilage, foreign objects, and some kinds of tumors. Ultrasound is more useful in seeing inside of the organs and detecting soft tissue pathology such as tumors, liver and gall bladder disease, kidney disease, cancer and other degenerative disease of the organs."

Looks as though this is a good idea.

Sometimes I wonder if my Vet is going to take my dog and put him into foster care I am such a nut about him. I remember the time I made her do an x-ray for a toothpick he swallowed even though waiting and seeing was a fine idea (this was before my cancer and prior to learning I should avoid x-rays when possible), and the other time that I wanted to have such a long discussion about an acceptable bone for my dog that she said, " sometimes you should just let your dog be a dog. So what happens if his tooth happens to chip when eating too hard of a bone? My dog has a small broken piece off of a tooth or two. Let your dog enjoy life".

BUT, I am still going to ask! He just turned 8 years old.
