How to Save Money at Layton 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.

All of the doctors who have seen our dog have been kind and knowledgeable. They worked with me through a difficult time when our dog was injured at a dog park. The doctor validated my choice for treatment and followed up later on. She healed well and it reinforced how important it is to work together during stressful situations. I appreciated the doctor listening to me. I would absolutely recommend this vet clinic to care for the pets you love.

They have taking care of my miniature Schnauzer for 11 years and they have been excellent. Unfortunately we had to put our baby down he was just way too sick he made it to 15 1/2 years we were told he would not make it to 11 years God is really good to us for blessing us with Knight. Time has passed and we have a baby miniature schnauzer we had him for a week and he already tugs at our heart. Dr. Missy examine our baby and said we have a very healthy baby boy. We are excited and glad to know Dr. Missy will be part of our new addition. We truly love how they take awesome care of our pets including our 🐈 ..

Took my daughter's cat here to get vaccinations. The front office staff could have been a bit friendlier. Place was a little small inside but clean. The women who administered the shots was very friendly and made us feel welcomed. Would return and recommend to others.
