What is a Wellness Plan?
Simply put, a wellness plan is an annual package of services that includes the optimal preventative healthcare services that your pet needs to stay happy and healthy. Our plans are designed to address every life stage, and our team will recommend the plan that is most beneficial for your pet based on age and other relevant factors.
You Asked, We Listened
Many pet owners are interested in being able to budget annually for their pets' preventative care by making automated monthly payments. Our plans make that possible. Enrolling your pet in one of our plans allows you to provide the very best in preventative medicine without breaking the bank.
Wellness plans are not the same as Pet Insurance
The purpose of our wellness plans is to ensure that your pet receives all of the preventative care needed to keep them healthy, as well as to proactively prevent and/or detect diseases earlier rather than later. The purpose of most pet insurance is different - it is meant to help cover the costs associated with illness, emergency or injury. In fact, wellness plans and pet insurance are a perfect pair, and having both means always being able to say "yes" to providing the very best for your pet.

Does my pet need a Wellness Plan?
A wellness plan is right for every pet, at every age. Acton Veterinary Group has carefully designed our plans to include the examinations, services and diagnostics that provide the most comprehensive preventative care and early disease detection for your pet at every stage of their life, from the time they are a puppy or kitten through their senior years. Treats and toys aside, a wellness plan is one of the best gifts you can give your beloved pet!
Here are some Preventative Care Basics:
Examinations
Regular, frequent head-to-tail veterinary examinations mean that health issues and abnormalities are detected early on and can be treated before they become more serious.
Vaccinations
Pets, like people, need vaccinations against dangerous viral and bacterial infections. Purchasing a wellness plan helps ensure that your pet receives regular vaccinations to protect against these serious, and sometimes deadly, diseases.
Diagnostics
Whether it is a fecal exam to check for parasites, or a blood profile to make sure that the kidneys, liver and other organs are working normally, there are important test that should be completed every year to maintain your pet's optimal wellness. As your pet gets older, more preventative diagnostics are recommended, and our wellness plans are customized to specifically reflect the type and quantity of diagnostics we recommend based on the age of your pet.
Nutrition and Exercise
Diet and exercise are just as important for pets as they are for people. Our goal is to partner with you so that your pet receives optimal nutrition and maintains a healthy weight throughout their life. An important part of a regular preventative care examination schedule includes monitoring your pet's weight to catch any changes early on when they are more manageable.
Behavior
When pets have behavior issues it can destroy the relationship they have with their human family. Our goal is to get to the root of these issues, determine the cause, and provide positive intervention before they become unmanageable. From house and litter box training to age-related behavioral changes, we help you get to the root of the problem and provide the advice and treatment needed to ensure that you and your pet remain the best of friends.
Oral Health
Oral health isn't just about bad breath. In fact dental disease can lead to serious illnesses such as infection and heart disease the longer it remains untreated. Not to mention, it can also be extremely painful for your pet. Regular dental assessments and cleanings are an integral part of providing optimal preventative care for your pet, which is why we have made it that much more accessible by including it as part of our wellness plan program.
Budgeting for Your Pet's Health Care
By design, wellness plans provide pet owners with peace of mind. you can be confident you are providing the ultimate preventative medicine for your pets, while at the same time being able to spread the cost of that care over 12 months.
