Homewood Animal Hospital

Due to our trip to France from December 17, 2009 to December 27, 2009, I set-up our dog Maverick to be boarded at our regular vet at Homewood Animal Hospital for the duration of the trip. On Thursday December 17, 2009, upon landing in Detroit, I received a voice mail from our vet stating that Maverick has an ear infection that needed treatment and also some antibiotics/steroids for the new growth he developed on his paw, between his toes. I okayed treatment over the phone and told them to give him whatever was necessary.
On December 28, 2009, Ken called Homewood Animal Hospital to see what time would Maverick be ready for pick-up. They informed him that the total bill for boarding and medical treatment was $560. It was understood between Ken and I prior to our trip that he would pick-up the vet bill since I was paying for the trip, including approximately $1,500 for car rental in France that was charged on Chase Credit Card.
Because of the monet he spent in France ($200 for coats/hat and cash withdrawal of 160 euros) he informed me that since he had to pay for January mortgage, he could not afford paying for Maverick.
On that same day, Chris from Homewood Animal Hospital called me at 11:38am and I paid Maverick's bill over the phone for the total amount due of $560 by charging it to my Chase Credit Card.
