Luv My Pet

I was in a panic because I’d been pushing off my pooch’s distemper shot due to financial constraints. I spoke to a colleague and she suggested the Luv My Pet clinic at Petco in Lake Zurich. That’s a bit far so I took to Unilocal to check out Luv My Pet. Search them, go ahead… I was freaking out. 1 – 2 Stars?!
I went anyway figuring that if they were rough with any of the dogs before us we’d beat a path out of there. I was pleasantly surprised. I stood in line for around 30 minutes but it was worth it. Especially when I’ve waited longer at the vet and paid twice as much. I love my vet but Luv My Pet is a necessity in this economy. They were very efficient and had a young lady handing out paperwork so we were ready when it was our turn.
We got the super pack of vaccines which was everything he needed (not rabies, he was current on that already), plus a heartworm test, plus a year of Sentinel ($ 20 rebate BAM!) for around $ 140. All of that at the vet is typically closer to $ 300. You can get individual vaccines as needed also. MOST IMPORTANTLY, the ladies handling my fur-​baby were gentle. I held his face for the shots and then the tech «hugged him» for the heartworm test which is a blood draw.
If you decide to go you might want to risk going later or get there 30 minutes before the scheduled clinic time. I was there right when it started and the line had about 7 – 8 doggies already. All in all a great experience.
