In addition to being excellent companions, pets have been known to lower blood pressure and provide emotional support to their owners. However, all pets also require care and devotion. Here are some money-saving tips to help keep them
active and healthy.
• As an alternative to buying expensive dog toys at the store, consider buying toys at yard sales or using pet-safe items lying around your house and garage.
• Making your own pet treats can be fun, easy and inexpensive. Use your pet’s favorite foods such as peanut butter and apples, or use healthy ingredients such as oats, flax seed and whole wheat flour.
• If your pet requires constant medication from the pharmacy, wholesale stores such as Costco, Sam’s Club and BJ's may offer the medicine at a reduced price.
• Health insurance coverage is available for many kinds of pets and can be useful for covering unexpected expenses such as serious injuries or illnesses. Policies vary on premium costs and coverage, so take your pet’s age and health into consideration when researching the insurance that’s right for your wallet and your pet. Remember that pet insurance may not be the best, or most frugal, choice for everyone.
