Help with vet costs for an aid dog?
Hello am getting an aid dog soon and am wondering if I can get any help with vet costs and stuff
Replies
Well, this is a new one on me
Help with something like vet costs might depend on what your 'official' economic situation is, in which case one of our benefits advisors might be able to help. Can you tell me if you're claiming anything at the moment?
Hope we will get some advice sorted out for you, so do stay in touch,
Warmest best wishes,
Richard
I think it depends on how you get your dog. My is a self funded dog, so I do have to pay for the dog, training, vet bills (I have insurance), for food, etc, but if you were given it through a charity, e.g. Guide Dogs for the Blind, the charity will usually pay for them.
