I believe that there are insurances that if you go to one of their vets you do not have to wait for reimbursement. Check out the internet. Also, check with your humane society, while mine does not handle emergencies (they will refer you to another vet) they do take sick animals and give meds, shots, etc. and they do spay/neuter services. I took both my boys to them for their neutering and they were wonderful. Surgery, pain meds, ecollar only $160 for two and they pulled my one boys three baby teeth. They even called the next day to see how they were doing. They have a daily clinic that only charges $12 for an office visit and they are terrific vets. Orinskye also takes her Toby there too and I was impressed with them. Also they have office hours half day on saturday. You need to either get insurance or what I do (since I had a $2000 emergency overdose with my one) I take the money I would spend on insurance and place it in a special "dog" account at my bank each month. Since the accident, I now have almost $400 in their special account for any emergencies. This is not touched for vaccinations, etc., but saved for real emergencies. Just an idea.
