How to Save Money at Happy Tails Veterinary Practice

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.

I cannot thank this clinic enough for saving my cat’s life. She was suffering from severe kidney inflammation, and the entire team went above and beyond to care for her every single day for five days in a row. Most places wouldn’t even offer this kind of hospitalization-style treatment, but they took her in without hesitation and provided the absolute best care possible. They kept her on IV fluids and antibiotics, monitored her closely every day, and treated her with so much compassion and attention. Today, Busia's doing amazing (she's 17!), and I truly believe we owe that to their dedication and expertise. A huge thank you to Dr. Abraham for his knowledge and kindness, to Viroel and Jennifer for taking such incredible care of her throughout treatment, and to Elise at the front desk for always being so supportive, patient, and reassuring during such a stressful time. This team genuinely cares about both the animals and their owners, and it shows in everything they do. I’m forever grateful for everything they did for my baby. Highly, highly recommend this clinic.

Thank you to Dr. Abraham and to the entire staff! So grateful for the care my bunny received when she needed it the most! Dr. Abraham accommodated us on a Sunday visit first thing in the morning and then again a few days later for an emergency follow up! He saw us immediately and gave her the care that was needed ASAP. He even called us well after hours to check in on her. A kind, caring and compassionate doctor and staff. Everyone was wonderful Elise, Jen and all the techs went the extra mile for us. I can’t thank them enough! Great local vet in Marine Park with accommodating hours! Thank you all again so much. Our pets are our family!

I can’t say enough wonderful things about Dr. Brian Abraham and Happy Tails. From the moment you walk in, you can tell how much he truly cares about his patients. He takes his time, explains everything clearly, and always makes sure you feel comfortable with your pet’s care. If you’re looking for a veterinarian who is not only highly experienced but also kind, patient, and trustworthy, Dr. Abraham is the one. I wouldn’t trust anyone else with my pet’s care.

I first learned about Dr. Abraham from my cousin who was raving about his ability to care for her extremely challenging cat. I was not disappointed. Not only were he and all his amazing staff wonderful with my slightly less challenging cat, his knowledge, experience and compassion were exactly what I was looking for in any medical professional. It has been my sad experience that so many veterinary practices have become more about profit than about care. I've really had enough of unseasoned doctors without the experience or inclination to deal with the big picture, floundering with diagnoses, ordering expensive and invasive tests and at least once hurting my cat with clumsy treatment. In contrast, Dr. Abraham is intelligent, balanced, kind, wise and above all a lover of both animals and their people. A small example of his skill and patience is in the care of my cat who had a history of urinary issues, he grasped her condition very quickly with a series of insightful questions. And when her bloodwork indicated the beginnings of kidney problems, we had several very useful discussions about the ramifications of a prescription urinary diet on the new condition, which resulted in improved quality of life. All without extra visits or tests. Now Dr. Abraham has a beautiful brand-new practice. The space is fantastic. It is immaculately clean and perfectly designed for effective treatment, with a room full of state-of-the-art equipment. At the same time, it is warm and welcoming, full of light and life, with especially pet forward decor. And the staff are equally warm and welcoming. It's a pleasure to set foot inside the door. I'm kind of hard to please and I don't write a lot of reviews. But I unequivocally recommend Happy Tails to anyone who cares about their animal companion. Reply, Reply All or Forward

Dr. Abraham is truly an exceptional veterinarian. I had a middle-of-the-night emergency with one of my dogs, and he took the time to answer my call and provide thoughtful, reassuring advice when I needed it most. That level of care and dedication is rare. He consistently goes above and beyond for his patients and their owners. I’m incredibly grateful to have a vet like him—he’s an absolute gem.
