How to Save on Veterinary Costs at Dundas Veterinary Services
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

I was a little worried about bringing my rescue pup in, as I have had poor experiences with vets in the past. The team at Dundas Veterinary Services has changed our perspective on vets in the best way! Our vet listened to our concerns and approached our high anxiety dog so well. I cannot praise this office enough! We have only been there twice so far, but I have full confidence in this team! I highly recommend this office for your fur babies’ needs! 😊 Tiggs thanks you all!

We were there for my dog's annual check up. He had blood work done plus 3 injections. The vet and support staff were excellent and treated my pet with care and respect. I was very pleased with our visit.

thinking about putting down an animal and looking for a good spot? absolutely DO NOT do it here. when finally making that tough decision to put down my childhood dog who was 15, mostly deaf and blind, had multiple cysts exploding and from that in lots of pain, and had arthritis in his back legs. we were then questioned multiple times if “we were sure about this decision” and then told “we don’t normally put a dog down for having cysts” when clearly there was more than just cysts that resulted in us making this decision and as if it was not a hard decision when my whole family was already bawling their eyes out about what were to happen. we now were made to feel guilty about this choice when we should not be questioned and instead should be given the space and peace that us and our dog would need during this. because they had questioned our choices for our own animal to put him out of his suffering from everything i now have battled with whether i should feel guilty or at peace, making this loss way harder for my family than it ever should have been. Dr.Dearden was the one who made this experience awful, steer clear from him please never go here if you want a peaceful and reassuring passing for your beloved pet. we will love and miss you forever buddy🤍

I am nothing short of impressed with the quality of service and knowledge from the vet techs and receptionist at Dundas Vet. When we welcomed two bunnies into our family a few months ago we called many places looking for just the right clinic and Dr. to take care of our pocket pets! From the moment I spoke with them I felt reassured and my trust grew with every communication. I don't have words for how amazing Dr. Barnette is with our buns. Watching the way she handled them (with confidence and care) as well as all the knowledge she shared with us made me so comfortable and happy! So much so that we drive 45 minutes just to get there!

Excellent staff, attentive, reasonable price and quick service. My dog Zeus suffered epilepsy seizures at 2 years old, they tried their best to control his seizures but unfortunately it wasn’t working and we had to put him to sleep.. the staff was patient, caring and also returns your calls very quickly. I will definitely be bringing my future pet with them again.
