How to Save Money at Veterinary Clinic Dawson County

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 had an emergency with my dog because she gotten bit by another dog and left a gash on her head, so I went in and they immediately got her in, it was such a quick process and everyone was so kind, they did an amazing job caring for her. I don’t remember the Doctors name but his assistant Hope was great with my pup and kept her calm the entire time while she was getting the stitches. I highly recommend this clinic!!!

Best Vet clinic I've ever used. They are extremely knowledgeable, compassionate, and great with animals. From large animals to small you won't be disappointed. They also have food and supplies for sale. Pictured is Scooby my son's dog 4 years after being hit by a car on a 18 mile hike. I'll never forget what they did for us that day. They also take care of our horses and cattle.

In October 22 we were passing through Glendive and staying at a local hotel. Our dog had what appeared to be a stroke. We walked in at 5 minutes before closing. The vet and her staff could not have been more accommodating. They ran tests, performed blood work and helped our dog recover from whatever was the cause. They could not have been better. The people of Glendive are fortunate.

On Nov 5th while hunting in the area my GWP had an encounter with a porcupine and had numerous quills in the facial area. We called Dawson County vet Clinic and even thou they were getting ready to go home for the day said they would stay open till we arrived. They were able to remove the quills after sedation and had us back on the road. Me and Ammo will forever be grateful to the Dr and his staff for getting us back in the field to continue our hunt Thank You

My daughter took her dog in for a neutering. All work there was good. They release the dog and tell her she doesn't need a sedative for a hyper fog even though she explained the dog is hyper and doesn't slow down. Then they proceed to tell her she doesn't need a cone for the hyper dog??? Now I have had several dogs neutered and every time the veterinarian has given us the cone on the dog to prevent them from licking the sutures. So she get dog home he starts licking and she calls they tell her to go get a cone( which she asked about at their office) at running. Runnings doesn't carry cones. She goes to ace tgey only have small cones. She buys cone to help dog stop licking. She notices sutures opening up so she calls vet they now charge a college student who brought her dog to them for neutering and additional 230$ to fix what they didn't do right in the first place and proceed to tell her she needs a sedative for the dog and the cone is too small and provided her with the proper size cone I am sure all inclusive in the $230 for after hours visit. So if you are taking animals into trust vet beware 🤔
