How to Save Money at Los Lunas Vetco

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.

Keep on trying to get dogs nails cut but they seem to want to earn their pay. Awful service. I called employee told me come around 12:40 then said after 12:45 later than sooner so arrived at 1:13 was told couldn't do it other employee left. It doesn't matter anymore I did it myself and now my dog is very happy. Wanted to do rabid shots I tried to give local business some sales but sometimes it's waste of effort. Seek other business if I need it.

Warning! Do not take your dog here if it weighs more than 10lbs. I could already tell this was going to be a horrible experience from the minute the tech walked in for her shift and looked at my Great Dane up and down in disgust. I guess this place doesn’t know what big dogs look like? Was he barking because he was scared? Yes. Does it sound scarier and louder than usual because he’s a 130lb dog? Yes. My dog is in no way aggressive nor has he ever been in any setting. Yes, he was muzzled because he barks very loud and that helps mitigate that. Contrary to popular belief, muzzles are not just for aggressive dogs. You would think that those working in this profession would know that. Once we left the room, he was silent and behaved. While in the exam room, I was met with the excuse of “we’re short staffed” at least twice in the 5 minutes we were there. Didn’t even buckle my seatbelt before I got a call to get him because he was being “very aggressive”. Again, the building was silent as I left so I know he wasn’t displaying any aggression or even barking. It was evident that these two girls didn’t want to deal with my dog. Yes he’s a big dog and sounds scary but he isn’t, he was scared. I decided to go with this place because it was inexpensive. Big mistake. Pay more money and take your pets elsewhere. Not to mention I didn’t receive a confirmation call the day before or any instruction for food or drink for the night before, like I was told I would.

Business not open on advertised hours. No sign or notification saying closed. Day after Christmas. Will take our business elsewhere that knows how to properly communicate to their customer base. You can't advertise proper hours how can we trust you with our pet family members. Update: Response: We did call same as complaints before in your reviews messaging and voicemail system is completely irrelevant and not operational. We also went to the store and nothing is posted in the windows.

Called multiple times with no idea what there business hours are so unable to get ahold of a human. Voicemail box is full and does not list the shot clinic hours like owner responded to in past reviews. When are your shot clinic hours the week of January 29th?

I would not even give them a star period. The information on Google is not correct, they do not have shot clinics on the days they say. I went there, on this past Saturday, when they said they had a clinic from 1:30 pm to 5 pm they were closed. So I called them, there message center was full so if you had an emergency there is NO way to even leave a message, very sad. Then they showed they had shot clinics Monday thru Friday from 1 pm to 4 pm so I called first only on Tuesday's do they have clinics for shots. With that kind of miss advertisement, I know for sure I would never ever take my animals to them.
