How to Save Money at The Ranch Veterinary 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.

Found a kitten yesterday and wanted to get an appointment as soon as possible. They were able to work me into the schedule in order for me to get it a wellness check and I love how gentle the Drs are. I especially appreciate that they are not rushing through the appointments in order to make sure all your questions and concerns are addressed. Definitely going to be going back and would highly recommend.

Can I possibly give them more stars!? Absolutely the best vet I've ever been to (and I've been to a lot). I have a very large shepherd dog who seems to have one problem or another at all times, it doesn't help that we travel so much. He had a bite wound from a previous incident reopen while I was in Winnemucca (I live 3 hours away). They got me in, the doctor saw me right away, and did a minor surgery on him very quickly. They may get busy at some point and not have time to see me that fast in the future, but I'm impressed with their attitudes, service, friendliness, knowledge, and atmosphere! My dog was comfortable with them, they explained everything in detail, didn't hide any prices, treated my dog (and me) with respect, and were ABSOLUTELY _fair_ in price. More fair than anywhere I've ever been. Even though they're far away, I will be coming back to make them my regular vet and look forward to doing so! Thank you guys, more than I could ever record.

By far the BEST Vet Clinic and Dr's I have taken my fur babies to. The entire staff is fantastic and they all give such great service and care. My dog had been misdiagnosed for years by other vets in different states. I took her in to see the Dr's at the Ranch Veterinary Clinic and it was life changing for her. They took their time and did the most thorough exam my dog has ever had and got her on the right track with new medicine. I definitely recommend that everyone take their fur babies to The Ranch Veterinary Clinic.

Called to schedule our 10 Cocker Spaniel puppies to have their tales docked and dew claws removed. The vet got me in the same day I called. She did an awesome job and the staff there are very friendly. Highly recommend The Ranch to have your animals taken care of by.
