How to Save Money at 4 Precious Paws

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.

I was very pleased to be treated with kindness and respect from everyone here! They were very friendly and knowledgeable. I have a dog who has the potential to be aggressive towards other dogs, and they were extremely understanding and accommodating! Prices are more than reasonable. I would recommend anybody bringing their fur-kids here for treatment. I had a great experience and plan to return here with my other pets!! Two thumbs up! 👍🏻👍🏻

The only good thing this establishment has going for itself is that it's low-cost, if that. First, I was charged an extra fee for getting my cat spayed in heat, which I was NOT made aware of in the scheduling nor drop-off process. Also, their website advertises that they give an included dose of revolution anti flea/tick, and I was not given this dose. Overall, the systems they have in place create large delays in drop-off and pickup, and the staff are not understanding and quite abrasive in communication. I was given my cat back in a urine soaked carrier, which I was also not happy about.

Kind caring and friendly staff. Efficient and helpful. Easy scheduling. Our 1 yr old 39 lb female dog had a successful experience and wonderful recovery without any concerns. Will be scheduling our next fur friend with them. It's an affordable option for animal care

These people are great! Everyone was very professional and kind and caring. Their facility was very clean and organized. I rescued a terrific little dog named Scooter. He was 100% checked out, up to date on all his shots and was neutered. They made the process very straightforward and orderly and the woman who fostered my dog took the time to follow-up afterward. They truly care about their dogs and go to great lengths to find them the perfect forever home. I couldn't be more impressed. Thank God for people like them!

They are nice people, have affordable prices, and I love that when I take my cats to neuter and spayed, they take care of them from 7 a.m to 4;30 p.m!!! I don't have to worry about the other things I have to take care of. They are awesome!!. Thank you to the staff working there.
