Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! This will depend if this is done in a general practice or at a specialty practice performed by a board certified surgeon. Usually at a general practice this will cost anywhere from $900-2,000 and $3,000-4,500 when performed by a board certified surgeon. Good luck and have a great day!
