How to Save Money at Bluegrass Animal Clinic, LLC
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.

Get Quotes & CompareGetting 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.

If I could give more than 5 stars, I would. I recently moved from Texas, to the Grayson area. I didn't know one veterinary clinic from the next. My senior toy poodle had a medical emergency. It was quite critical. Bluegrass Animal Clinic was recommended. I called the office and they saw him immediately. Dr. Whitley performed same day emergency surgery. My little guy had to stay at the clinic 6 days. Without Dr. Whitley's expertise and compassion, I would have lost my precious pup. "Thank you" doesn't begin to cover my appreciation for the entire staff's professionalism and devotion to my Elvis. We are now on the road to recovery. I don't know how much time my Elvis has left in this life, but, Dr. Whitley and his team gave me more. Thanks to them, this was not goodbye.

DO NOT GO HERE. They completely ignored our wishes for a procedure and when confronted about it, the office manager told me my wife ok'd the procedure (which she did no), and when my wife confronted them, the same office manager told her that the technician didn't write the wishes on the paper. They ignored our wishes and charged us extra for the service that was not supposed to take place. We were also informed that the Veterinarian was out of the office numerous times (which was a lie) so we could not speak to him directly about our complaint. Then they called local law enforcement to wait while we came to pick up our pet and pay for the original price quote as an intimidation factor for us to pay the full amount. They may provide good service (when accurate) but if a mistake happens, they blame the customer. I have used many animal clinics all over the U.S. and parts of Europe. This is the worst one I have ever experienced.

They did an amazing job with my cat Lucy. She is a bit of a wild one to say the least 🤣 but they handled her with care and was very helpful and informative when I scheduled my appointment. She stubbed up on me her first scheduled appointment and they were understanding and got me another appointment for the next day. They def deserve a 5star rating
