Wellness plans are not pet insurance, but instead are a bundled group of services needed to prevent disease and provide the best medicine and protection for your pet. They often have plan benefits, and can be funded either in full on the date of purchase, or by making monthly installments deducted directly from your checking or savings account.
We examined wellness programs for many different veterinarians, and attended countless lectures at the North American Veterinary Conference to try to offer you the best possible care at the best price. We think we have done just that, and we are all very pleased to offer you these plans
Ok, on to the good stuff, just what will you get, and how much it will be.
• Puppy and Kitten Plans starting at $26.95/month
• Canine Plans starting at $15.50/month
• Feline Plans starting at $14.95/month
For each category, we offer a basic plan. That basic plan includes your pet’s needed vaccines, diagnostic testing, and wellness examinations. Think of the vaccine packages we offer now and that is the basic package with the addition of a few “perks”. First of all, your pet will get a minimum of 2 wellness visits, where he or she will receive a comprehensive examination from a veterinarian. This is essential to good health and illness prevention.
Besides the extra exam and vaccines, you will receive the following in our basic plan:
• 10 percent off additional services and products. If you have that emergency appointment, it will cost you less if you are a wellness plan member. Also, medications, leashes, and flea, tick, and heartworm prevention are discounted!
• Unlimited FREE nail trims. Oh yeah, no more blood trails through the kitchen and no more wrestling to trim that dewclaw – we have you covered with unlimited free nail trims!
• $25 co-pay for sick visits. If your pet is sick, you will only pay a co-pay to see the vet, making your visit much more affordable.
• Each of the items in the plans are discounted from our already low prices, making this program the most affordable wellness care we have ever offered!
Some pets require more services because of their age, breed, or medical history. These pets deserve the same top-of-the-line care we offer in our basic level plans, plus a little extra. Silver and Gold level plans are available to include training classes, spay/neuter surgeries, dental cleanings, comprehensive blood work, wellness x-rays, and more! We can find the right plan fit for your pet, and you can rest assured that you are providing them best preventative care available.
