Chars Dogs and Dog Info

What would you do if some sort of medical emergency happened to your dog, he needs expensive medical treatment, and you are not able to pay for it? This can happen to all of us at one time or another. 

Here are some suggestions for you.

• More than likely, your vet or vet clinic will allow you the time to make phone calls to friends and family to try to obtain some funds. They will also let you run to the local ATM to retrieve the needed resources.

• Perhaps you have a credit card you could use or possibly your vet will take a post dated check that will give you some time to obtain the cash needed. 

• There is a credit card called Care Credit that I have used in the past. This card is specifically used for veterinarian and other health care needs. They assist you in applying for a line of credit on an emergency basis. They also have very good interest rates compared to other credit cards. 

• You could look into pet insurance BEFORE something unexpected happens. If you apply for pet insurance when your dog is young, the rates are really reasonable. There are a number of companies that offer this coverage so it might be something to look into.

I’ve had few times this has happened to me and it can really stress you out. Not only are you worried sick about your furry friend, but then you have to figure out how to pay for it. Not a good thing to have to overcome.
