Do You Need Help with Vet Bills?

Starting a new year is always a great time to take a long and detailed look ahead.  One thing you might want to consider concerns your pets.  It's true that, as pets age, their health maintenance and care can get more expensive.  This is especially true if they need more frequent treatments, medications or procedures. If your pet is at that stage in life or you have a younger pet that already has specific health challenges, figuring out what those vet expenses might be and looking at how to pay for them is a wise idea.

The good news is that there are lots of resources available to pet owners, from insurance to foundations that assist with expenses.  An article by The Dogington Post has a very long list of foundations that offer assistance to pet owners as well as a state-by-state list of options. There are groups and foundations that focus on specific problems, like cancer and heart disease, as well as more general assistance.

Just a few options from the list are: 
The Pet Fund
For the Love of Alex
The Big Hearts Fund
Frankie's Friends
The Brown Dog Foundation
