How to Save Money at Pet Care Naturally

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.

My favorite place to go for all my pet needs. My lab had a issue several years ago and the vet was able to give her a small back adjustment as if they knew exactly what needed to be done just by watching the dog walk! I did not know at that point in time that there was a dog chiropractor in our town but she was instantly fixed and didn't set me back thousands of dollars!

Where do I begin....I discovered Dr. Weiner after being fed up with the treatment of other larger vets. He has always been amazing with my babies. More recently, I cannot begin to express my lifelong gratitude with the treatment & surgery of our newest senior pup. He was gentle and slow with her from the minute I brought her in. He showed me personally just how bad her issue was. His primary evaluation of what she needed was known to me upfront as worst case, so there were no surprises. I brought her to Lewiston day of surgery and he graciously drove her back to Redding the next day. Neil Weiner is a true doctor in every sense of the word. I am forever grateful for the kindness, compassion and treatment of my new senior dog. If we are lucky to have her minimum five more years, it will be because of him and how he improved her life to be free of daily pain.

Dr Neal takes the time to explain the elements of a injury or illness. He is very compassionate about all the animals.

Added a new dog to our family and Dr. Weiner and staff were perfect for her. Our family has been bringing our pets to Pet Care Naturally for over 20 years.
