HOW TO SAVE MONEY AT THE VET (INCLUDING WHAT THE ONLINE PHARMACIES DON’T WANT YOU TO KNOW!)
by M. Copper
In case you haven’t noticed, quality vet care isn’t cheap. But if it wasn’t—I’d be worried. Because it would be your pet’s health that had to suffer! The cost to run a veteinary clinic is more than what many people expect and most veterinarians retire before their college loans are paid off.
Of course, you probably could care less about all that! You just want your pet to receive proper health care without breaking the bank. Understood. Let’s find out how.
Tip #1: Be straight up!
If your pooch is acting sick and you KNOW he ate something out of the garbage—tell the vet! I can’t tell you how many times we’ve gone through a list of expensive (and sometimes unnecessary) diagnostic procedures to find out that the owner knew all along what the problem might be!
“Oh yeah—I did notice that I had a sock missing . . .” Ugh!
We had one gentleman who knew his dog ate a pair of panties but didn’t want to tell us because, well . . . the panties didn’t belong to his wife.
Fortunately, the dog got better but his pocketbook paid the price. Not sure what happened to the marriage.
We’re not here to judge you—we’re here to make your pet feel better!
