How to Save on Veterinary Costs at Sleeping Giant Animal Clinic

Preventive care

Routine wellness exams can help identify health issues early, often before they become more serious or expensive to treat. Regular checkups are one of the most effective ways to manage long term veterinary costs.

Compare prescription pricing

Some pet medications prescribed at veterinary clinics may also be available through local or online pharmacies. It can be helpful to compare pricing when appropriate to reduce ongoing medication costs.

Consider pet insurance

Jean is always friendly and accommodating when I call to schedule an appointment or request medication. And Dr. McCormick is a highly competent, thorough, wonderfully compassionate and caring veterinarian. I appreciate the kindness with which he treats our dogs -- and us!

We have used Sleeping Giant since 2020. In that time we’ve had a dog bitten by a rattler and a cat reach the end of her 18 year life. In both of these situations the Doctors and Staff of Sleeping Giant Animal Clinic have been responsive and supportive. When our Wirehaired Pointing Griffon was bitten we called ahead that we were in route with her. They met us in the parking lot and started her on antivenom. An overnight stay, some painkillers, and a lot of luck and she was none the less for the experience. They followed up by phone (twice!) to be sure she was ok. When our 18 year old cat showed signs of advanced kidney failure they helped us keep her stable and then came out to the house to euthanize her so she did not have the stress of another office visit. These are good people who care deeply for their animal clients, and are supportive to their human clients.We are happy to recommend them without reservation. We still have 2 dogs and one cat. We feel the wellness care they receive is excellent

Sleeping Giant Animal Clinic has been caring for our 11 year old Airedale Terrier for nearly 2 years and we have always received top notch service. We have been through everything from next day surgery to basic routine care. Each time with we received personalized care and we are so thankful!

Staff is kind, helpful and answers all my questions. I always feel they know what they are doing and put my pets health as first priority. They text to make sure everything is going well!! They don't charge so much that you have to put a second mortgage on your house like most places in Boz Angelis so we travel to Livingston. these fine people have won us over!!! Thank you for all you do!!!

Sleeping Giant vets are great with our animals. They listen to us and are patient with us when we try to explain our animals issues. They are great at understanding our pets. We have had many dogs and a cat. They are great when it comes to their end of life as well. The cost is reasonable in our area. Absolutely recommend. My favorite is the fish tank in the cat room, genius.
