How to Save Money at Paulding Animal Clinic

Schedule Regular Vet Visits

One of the best ways to save on vet bills is to prevent expensive health issues before they develop. By scheduling regular wellness checkups, your vet can detect health issues early, helping you to avoid costly treatments and surgeries down the road.

Price Shop for Pet Prescriptions

Oftentimes our fur babies are prescribed human drugs off-label. Your vet is apt to charge more for these medications than you would pay at your local pharmacy. In fact, big-box or chain pharmacies can offer steep discounts. So it’s best to price shop.

Pet Insurance

Most pet insurance providers will pay between 80% and 90% of the vet bill. You can even get coverage for routine care and things like vaccinations and dental cleanings. If you do the math, you’ll most likely find that pet insurance makes financial sense in the long run as well as gives you peace of mind.

Getting to Know Your New Vet: Essential Questions to Ask

Choosing a new veterinarian is an important decision for any pet owner. You want to find someone who is competent, compassionate, and a good fit for you and your fur baby. To help you get the most out of your first appointment, here's a list of essential questions to ask your new vet:

Tell me about your experience with [pet type].

Different vets have different areas of specialization. Some are experts with cats, some dogs, some pocket pets, and some horses. Knowing that your vet has vast experience treating your specific type of pet can bring you peace of mind.

How do you handle emergencies?

You must know what to do in case of a pet medical emergency. Inquire what after-hours policy the clinic has, whether they have on-site emergency care available, and if they have a relationship with any nearby emergency animal hospitals.

How do you communicate with pet owners?

Good communication is key to building a trusting relationship with your vet. Ask how they prefer to communicate (phone calls, emails, online portal) and how often you can expect to hear from them.

Are there any breed-specific health concerns I should be aware of?

Some breeds are predisposed to certain health conditions. Knowing what to watch out for can help you catch problems early and get your pet the treatment they need.

Do you have any questions for me about my pet?

This is a great question to ask because the answer will show that the vet is interested in getting to know your pet as an individual and is willing to listen to your concerns.

Bonus question: Can I take a tour of your facility?

Getting a feel for the clinic's environment can help you and your pet feel more comfortable during your visits. Remember, you’re not just looking for a veterinarian, you’re looking for a partnership. Do not be afraid to ask these questions and any others you can think of. Any vet worth their salt will be happy to answer them. Because the more informed you are, the better equipped you'll be to make decisions about your pet's care! And that should be every vet’s top priority.

Everyone at the clinic was friendly and attentive to me and my cat. When I called for the appointment, I was able to get one the next afternoon. This was the first time that I have been there, I will definitely return the next time my cat needs to see a vet! The office was exceptionally clean!

The past couple of times we’ve been to the office, my dogs were seen and cared for by Dr. Mahoney. She’s awesome. She is very knowledgeable and always provided thorough explanations to my dogs’ issues and the best treatment. Overall, very friendly and caring staff, and I am pleased with the services and care we have received in this clinic. Fair prices. Highly recommend them!

Dr Judy has been my vet for about 13 years. I really like the way he takes care of my fur babies. His office staff is very knowledgeable and very friendly. I have recommended him to several people. I will never take my Sassy and Charlie to anyone else. Thank all of you for every thing that ya’ll do to make my fur babies healthy.

I arrived a little early, they knew who my dog was and got us right in. They were very sincere. A nurse(vet tech) came out, met my girl. I mean really took a few with her. From there on it was fast.. the Dr( Dr. Judy) came out, love that man! Anyway gave us a update. Can't say enough. Love this vet. I'm a long time patient/client/patron. I will always bring my dogs as long as they will have me.

My entire family has brought our dogs here for my whole life! All of my dogs have seen Dr. Judy! We have been frequent flyers lately due to an accident prone dog I have and each visit we are treated so well! The love for animals really shows in this establishment!
