How to Save Money at Farrell 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 have used Farrell Animal Hospital since Dr. Turner started his practice there and have always had the best of care for my dogs. All of the employees are very caring in giving the best treatment or advice possible and I appreciate all they do in keeping my dog in good health. I recently had to put down my 15 year old and they were very compassionate.

My husband and I had been looking for a dependable veterinarian for quite a while. Our neighbor highly recommended Dr. Turner at the Farrell Animal Clinic in Arlington. We live in Richardson, TX, so it took us a little while to commit to driving that far with the dogs, but we are happy we did. Dr. Turner and his team of veterinarians, technicians, and office staff have cared for four of our dogs since we have been taking our pets to his clinic. Each one of our four dogs have had their own set of problems. From Leptospirosis to malignant tumors, a splenectomy, a CCL repair, dental extractions and cleanings, and end of life care where they held me until I could stop crying. Dr. Turner and his marvelous staff have been more than willing to see to it that each one received the loving attention that they deserved. They have more than gained our trust. They have become trusted friends, and we highly recommend them to anyone seeking excellent pet care for their pets. Sharon and Bob McCartney
