    Your Dog’s Second Best Friend – the Vet

Every dog will need veterinary attention from time to time.

It might shock you when you find out the level of fees most charge for routine consultations
and procedures.

This is something you must take into account early on when deciding whether or not you can
afford to get a dog or other pet.

A good vet is a valuable ally in ensuring that your dog has the best life possible, so take time
to find out from friends or other dog owners you know whether they have any
recommendations for you to check out.

Another factor is how far you need to travel, the cost and ease of transporting your dog to
and from their location. If you have to leave your pet there all day while you work elsewhere
and then pick it up on your way home, that adds extra pressure for the animal while it is in
strange, and often frightening, environment and extra cost and time pressures to your day.

Try to make a casual visit to the Vet that you are considering without your pet. Ask them
about their charges, whether some groups that you may be part of get any discounts and
whether all bookings must be paid for at the time or if you can set up an account.

Vets generally suffer from a high number of slow or no-payers, so don’t be surprised if most
places have a firm cash or credit card only policy. After you’ve established a reputation with a
particular vet, you may be able to pay an unexpectedly large bill in installments but don’t
count on that method being available.

Most, if not all, vets do some free work for people in real need or animal welfare
organizations but they cannot let everyone that asks to get the benefit of their expensive
training and experience for almost nothing. The cost of constantly updating their own
knowledge and skills, finding and keeping suitable staff, maintaining equipment that costs
about the same as that used on humans, covering the cost of unpaid accounts and their own
high insurance payments as well as making a good income is high and ever-increasing.

Can I See The Vet’s Assistant?

If you don’t need the Vet’s expertise, like if you get your dog’s toenails clipped, that can
probably be done by a staff member and could cost you less than a full professional
consultation. The staff are, of course, properly trained.

Pet Insurance

One method that can reduce the impact and stress of unexpected bills that can be near as
large as we humans face in our hospitals is to pay for pet insurance.

But, it’s more like a lottery than an investment – worth the cost if you have a sudden need of
the money to prevent the suffering or even untimely euthanasia of your pet but, at current
rates, it can be a significant dent in your budget every month.

Some companies have already stopped offering this type of insurance, so make sure, as best
you can, that any policy you consider is backed by a reputable company. The policies that are
offered by some animal welfare organizations are, of course, produced and maintained by
the same insurance companies which offer their own policies to pet owners. They pay the
welfare organization an agreed amount of the premiums that you pay and the organization
endorses and recommends the policy.

I suggest you seriously consider these policies because they are likely to have been carefully
scrutinized by the organizations experts or consultants.

But, any decision you make on a particular policy or whether pet insurance is worthwhile for
you must be focused on your own situation and needs, not colored by a desire to support
the welfare organization.

There is not likely to be much difference in the benefits or restrictions of policies whether you
buy one that is endorsed by a welfare organization or one that you get directly from the
insurance company.

Restrictions may include some or all of the following:

Regular vet consultations and procedures are not covered.

There may be a period of maybe several months between payment of your first premium and
when you are able to claim any benefits under the policy.

That “no benefit” period may not start until the premium has actually landed in the insurance
company’s bank account.

The amount of reimbursement for particular procedures may be capped to a certain dollar
amount or a percentage of the fees charged. This could leave you with a substantial “gap’
amount that you still have to pay directly to the vet.

As with human health insurance, hereditary and pre-existing conditions do not attract any
benefits.

Read the terms and conditions very carefully. Compare at least two policies. This will
probably cost you a significant sum over the pet’s life and deserves careful scrutiny. Ask ALL
your questions before you sign anything.

Also, ask your vet for their recommendations and, especially, whether their practice accepts
payments through the plan that you are considering. Some insurance companies are masters
of delay when making payments, so this may affect the answer.

Some people I know have started payments and then decided to drop it - that it’s too
expensive for them or for the benefits they might get.

One financially comfortable friend started an interest bearing Bank account for her new
puppy a month before she got it just as she had done for her nieces. She said that way was
much more sensible for her than to pay the money to any insurance company.

If the pup had a good life and there was money in the account when it passed on, she could
use that to protect the next pet or, if she decided not to get another dog, then she would be
able to make a reasonable donation directly to her favorite animal welfare organization.
