How to Save Money at Rumney Animal Hospital
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.

I'm very happy I switched from my previous vet in Ashland. Rumney Animal Hospital took a very different approach to a problem one of my dogs was having, and not only did it make more sense, but it appears to be working well. I have much more trust in this place than the one I left. My dogs also seemed to handle the visit better than other places. There was no cowering behind my legs, barking, etc. It seemed the entire visit went smooth and less stressful for my dogs. I also liked the way they did the visit. They first sat with me to determine if there were concerns I had with my dogs. Then, at the end, they sat with me to discuss what they found and provide advice. No rushing me out the door. As mentioned earlier, their approach to resolving the issue my dog was having was to start with a diet change BEFORE going to medication to rule out potential problems instead of just writing a prescription right away. It worked so far. Regarding prescriptions, this place had them on the shelf, making it possible to walk out with them and not have to go through some online pharmacy. The previous vet didn't do this. Easy 5 stars.

I cannot say enough about how amazing this place is! I had just moved to the area and figured my dog Max needed a local Vet. He is notorious for biting and shaking and all the anxiety while being at the vets. To my utter surprise, he loved it here! The staff were all extremely professional and loving towards him. And the doctor even got to cut his nails (which he usually has to be muzzled for) We love Rumney Animal Hospital!

I’ve been going to Rumney Animal Hospital for many years. I currently have 5 dogs and 1 cat and I’ve even brought them a chicken to care for after she was attached by a fox! Dr Sue is fabulous with the animals and us humans too. I’m always well informed when one of my fur babies needs special care and they always call to follow up and check on their patient. I fine them very affordable too. The whole staff here is professional, kind and caring and I feel blessed to have them as our family vet.
